Republicans Calling This 'obama's Shutdown' Proves They're Clueless

so now that I've outlined to you some of the media coverage that's going on around the government shutdown let's actually Explorer in detail the broader yuri the broader hypothesis that it is president Obama's shut down a number republicans have been saying this is O'bama shut down he is not talking to us he is not negotiating in our good friend Bill share as a really great article which I have here in the week and it's called 5 bogus republican arguments to justify a government shutdown so at the top of the list and and just read the article because it is very good Obama won't negotiate right as we know Sean Hannity literally getting caught five minutes after saying that Obama's not talking to anybody by a breaking news alert saying Obama's calling all sorts of people not true don't believe it number two that republicans have already compromised ladies and gentlemen Obamacare was passed democratically and upheld by the highest court in the land it is the law period to say that republicans are compromising and its democrats who won't further That Bird the hold up their end of the compromised by allowing the defund the defunding repealing or otherwise delaying a vote Obama Care is a completely bogus and ridiculous argument number three that Republicans are just demanding what the people want incorrect at number one the idea that people don't want Obamacare is absurd we know that individually americans overwhelmingly support all aspect including the individual mandate Obamacare and broadly speaking are are are it average individuals if you want to take the argument that we should do whatever the average person says about dat or or our budgets or whatever I'll will be there any number of things that we don't put up the popular votes and this could be one of those as well number for Harry Reid shut down the government this is just not true and number five since O'bama is delaying Obamacare for his friends he should for everyone else and the real story is that this delay we talked about which is for the mandate on employers with 50 or more workers was really around a paperwork issue the idea that the law is in principle being delayed or altered for Obama's friends but not for everyday people just isn't true so Lewis that none of these theories about President Obama is at fault here make any sense yet there is not overwhelming evidence that americans understand this yes more americans blame Republicans than Democrats for this but there are still many Americans who just don't know or do blame Democrats right and this is unfortunate I mean I I know that there's always confusion when something this big goes down there's always misinformation everywhere and politicians on either side of the issue telling people what they want people to hear why I mean all we can hope for is that there's a positive affect I soon and that all americans realize that I just don't understand how you can say that with any with any level love dignity that because Democrats won't compromise with Republicans to allow the defunding a democratically past and Supreme Court upheld law they're not compromising imagine Louis if in order to pass a spending bill democrats decided okay will pass the spending bill but we want something in there that says if you work for an oil company you've got to pay an extra 10 percentage points love your income in tax right obviously it wouldn't pass there's there's a law about taxation we have tax bracket you can't just throw something like that in the bill imagine then if democrats came out in blamed Republicans were not compromising with them to pass a spending bill nobody would buy that and this is the same thing but I don't know for some reason because it Obamacare people don't seem to get it this is a you know if you were one of those Republicans who is behind be a I the republic in elected officials were you were doing this I you would probably be completely convinced that Obamacare will bankrupt this country and that you will be under the control some death panel and that your life is over Lewis had a run in with the pyramid scheme are in Austin Texas the other day and today's bonus show we're
