I think this was originally posted on Grant Williams site, but regardless, it has to make you go hmmm...

“I have worked in the government on and off for 40 years.  During that time I became quite familiar with requisitions, bidding, awarding contracts etc.  It is a time consuming process with bean-counters and pencil-necked bureaucrats every step of the way.  The simplest request takes months not days or hours.

 In less than 8 hours of the shutdown, miraculously, professionally printed 3X4 foot signs appeared all over the country in the tens of thousands saying-“this [park, facility, etc. with custom logos] closed due to government shutdown.  There has not been a government shutdown in 17 years.  These signs were designed, specifications were determined, signs were then requisitioned, bids were posted and vetted, government contracts were awarded.  The materials were then ordered and the signs manufactured then distributed U.S. Mails or freight companies.

 This shutdown was orchestrated and planned well in advance at least 6-8 months ago.”

The past few weeks have been a very interesting demonstration on the use of distraction and diversion. I'm not talking about anything Boner has done. This is about the President and his Administration. Flying under the radar during the whole shutdown fiasco has been the TPP negotiations, often referred to as "NAFTA on steroids,".

This country is a bad fucking joke. There is absolutely no point in trying to save it at this point. I'm gonna stage my own personal version of a general strike: cut my spending to a bare minimum and try to get my income as low as possible so I don't feed the beast. I'm not rich enough to become a corporate parasite, so I might try to go on the dole like the poor parasites.

Fuck. This. Shit.

It was always planned this way; it was always to end in Sellout! with a Republican leadership-shift in allegiance to the Democrat Party!

Gary North saw it nearly a year ago; he knew the color of John Boehner’s coat, of his intended betrayal of his conservative constituency. North wrote of it in “John Boehner's 'GobGop' Plan to Sell Out the Tea Party in 2013.” It began, he says, in January 2011.

Said North in November 2012: “He will play to the Tea Party. He will gain their trust. He will throw down the gauntlet on health insurance from day one. He will hammer relentlessly on this for two years.”

And, then, he will sell them out.

“The sell-out is coming. It will be business as usual. The GobGops now control the House. They can posture all they want, knowing the Senate will block their token spending cuts. The GobGops will scream: "If we only controlled the Senate! If we only controlled the White House! Then we could get spending under control!" You know: the way they did under Bush.

“It will make great political theater. Punch and Judy will perform a real donnybrook. A good time will be had by all.

“The Bigs will get bigger. They always do.” Wrote North:

First, you must understand that Boehner is a GobGop: a Good Old Boy of the Grand Old Party. The GobGops' goal is to keep the present system funded by the Bigs: Big Business, Big Pharma, Big Oil, and Big Banking. If you do not understand this, then you are as naive as a Democrat who thinks Obama speaks for The Common Man.

Boehner shilled for Hank Paulson and Goldman Sachs by begging the Republicans to vote for the $750+ billion Big Bank Bailout in 2008. Watch his emotional performance here. "We just have to do it!" No, they didn't. Ron Paul told it straight. He is no GobGop.

Boehner is going to do it again. He has already told us what he intends to do.

The obvious target is Obamacare. The Tea Party voters hate it. They regard it as an affront… (But…)

[G]et this straight. We're going to be "gifted" with a health care plan

we are forced to purchase and fined if we don't,
Which purportedly covers at least ten million more people, without adding a single new doctor,
but provides for 16,000 new IRS agents,
written by a committee whose chairman says he doesn't understand it,
passed by a Congress that didn't read it
but exempted themselves from it,
and signed by a President who smokes,
with funding administered by a treasury chief who didn't pay his taxes,
for which we'll be taxed for four years before any benefits take effect,
by a government which has already bankrupted Social Security and Medicare,
all to be overseen by a surgeon general who is obese,
and financed by a country that's broke!!!!!

'What the heck could possibly go wrong?'

This is all true. Tea Party people know it's all true. They threw the rascals out . . . but left enough of them behind to sell us out. … (REPLACE HIM NOW BEFORE THE HOUSE FACES IMMIGRATION!)
