“The words ‘government shutdown’ do not mean ‘government shutdown.’ They mean ‘boondoggle shutdown.’ They mean ‘special-interest-group-subsidy shutdown.’ What about the Post Office? Will it get shut down? No. What about the CIA? Will it get shut down? No. What about the NSA? Will it get shut down? No. What about the TSA? Will it get shut down? No. What about the Department of Homeland Security? Will it get shut down? No. My suggestion: stop worrying about a government shutdown. Instead, keep worrying about the government staying open . . . just like you did before.”
