I feel all who are voting against funding Homeland Security is a threat to our country. They do not deserve to have salaries or pensions themselves! Shutdowns are not fair to any of their constituents nor any American. It seems to be a group ‘pitty-pot’!

Common sense needs to prevail, and some seem to lack it.

If I could not work out problems in my workplace, I would have been fired!

Or are there some in Congress who are so un-American enough, they want to destroy our country.
