The Shut down of Government is ... all because of Obamacare. (I wrote about this the other day.)
Yes, Republicans so hate the new health-care law that they're willing
to do whatever it takes to block its implementation, whether it's shut
down the government or force the country to default on its debts, in the
latter case perhaps triggering global economic armageddon.
Republican David Frum says: All
in all, it's hard to see any positive outcome emerging for Republicans
from this confrontation. Yet the party is charging forward anyway. Why?
The
short answer is a breakdown in the party's ability to govern itself. It
can't think strategically. Even when pressed to do something
overwhelmingly likely to end in disaster, as this shutdown looks likely
to do for Republicans, the party has no way to stop itself. It stumbles
into fights it cannot win, gets mad, and then in its anger lurches
into yet another fight that ends in yet another loss.
