Good time to push an impeachment for Obama right when everyone is irate.
Problem is we would have to impeach everyone in DC, or clean house.
And amend the constitution.

Is this the best they can do? A war monument and a fishing hole? Can't wait to see the other more imaginative "torture the people" schemes they come up with.
Otherwise, the people might get the idea that it doesn't matter if the government is there or not. Wouldn't want that notion to take hold. A limited government, gee... whats that?

The President didn't close down these areas. That was and is entirely in the lap of the Koch lap dogs in the House. When you shut down the Government, all non-essential, everything gets the ax. ALL the national parks and seashores and designated ocean areas included. The President did not wake up a few days ago and decide which places to close in order to do the most damage. You need to talk to the Teahadists about that.

I don't think that one CAN GET INTO the JOINT CHIEFS LEVELS
without being
FIRMLY UNDER THE ROBOTIC CONTROL OF THE GLOBALIST MACHINE.
Probably not even a general or Admiral--at least not very high ranking. There may be some hold-overs from the past . . . . but I doubt you could do it now.

"Just before the weekend, the National Park Service informed charter boat captains in Florida that the Florida Bay was "closed" due to the shutdown. Until government funding is restored, the fishing boats are prohibited from taking anglers into 1,100 square-miles of open ocean. Fishing is also prohibited at Biscayne National Park during the shutdown."
I would say "good luck enforcing that" while taking my boat out there.
But why is Florida closed for fishing, but the northwest is not? Personally, whom ever said this was full of sea weed, sea water, and fish guts.

According to this, the Feds are now evicting people who own homes on government land:

I wonder if this action also applies to houseboats now anchored in the Florida Bays.
Biscayne National Park has dropped a controversial proposal to ban fishing across nearly 16 square miles of coral reef, after vigorous opposition from anglers and members of Congress.
The park, which encompasses southern Biscayne Bay, had proposed a no-fishing zone to help coral reefs recover from decades of heavy fishing that had devastated snapper, grouper, lobster and other creatures that make their homes in the park's shallow, sunny waters.
