West Wing briefing: Obama headed out of D.C. as shutdown looms

 

Despite the impasse in Washington over federal spending, the president as of early Wednesday was scheduled to give two speeches outside of Washington: one on energy in the Philadelphia suburbs, then another Wednesday evening to a group of black political activists in New York.

============================

 

Hey... I'm for a shutdown! Maybe when they go to refuel to return home, their debit card will get rejected at the pump... although I would have preferred a trip outside of the country.

 

BTW... I'm glad to note that we finally have a "post racial" president.
