    Open our parks and rivers back up. You should not effect the people this way. Fight all you want about anything you want, but don't shut everything down.

    Keep the GOV shut down. The DEMs passed Obamacare when they had a short majority even though the people didn't want it.

    Republican Congress: You fought, you lost. Now you are doing more harm than good. You who are holding out should be fired for not doing your job of running the government. Those with good conscience would not hurt so many people or jeopardize the stability and reputation of our country what is obviously a lost cause. I wish we can fire you..

    This is a disgrace that Republicans would jeopardize the good of the country and its global standing to a prove a point that no one but themselves support. Not to mention that Congress is paying themselves while withholding the pay of others. What a truly shameful moment for our country.

    Hello, I served in the Military for 4 years and got out in July of 2013. I found a full-time job and am also a full-time student. I received one GI bill payment. This government shutdown threatens further GI bill payments which were one of the main reasons I joined the Military in the first place. I'm married and me and my wife found a house after waiting 2 months for my first GI bill payment. I signed the lease and now have no idea if I can pay for it since this shutdown is going on. I signed the lease the day before the shutdown. I gave the military 4 years of my life in exchange for benefits I thought I was going to receive, and the miscalculations in congress should be of no fault to me and my American dream. I urge you to please do all you can in ending this shutdown. Thank you.

    This is outrageous that the government cannot even fund itself because a few immature members who are sore losers cannot get over the fact that obamacare is going through. I'm not even a big supporter of obamacare, but i am certainly not a supporter of shutting down crucial branches of the united states government which we pay hard earned money for. If someone did this in the private sector which the republicans love so much, they would be FIRED! They should follow their own party values and fire themselves!

    Those Tea Party Republicans are acting like irresponsible immature children. This has every thing to do with their dissatisfaction that they lost the election to Obama. Grow up!

    Dear Republican representatives: If I don't do my job, I get fired. How is it that you can choose not to do yours and make American families pay instead of you?

    I am a recent college graduate. Because of the republican party, I don't know the next time I will have access to decent health care and my only job offer was rescinded because the federal grant money was frozen. You claim that "the majority of American citizens wont even notice", but you're holding my future hostage for your own misguided beliefs. I definitely notice!

    My husband is a government worker, who has clearly been negatively affected by this absurdity. How can you look at yourself in the mirror knowing you are potentially putting people in a financial crisis?

    We are the laughing stock of the world, we can't do our general governmental functions at the Congressional level of government because of a small faction of one party. Way to go Tea Party Republicans...You all need to be recalled.

    The Republicans need to grow up and do their job. Still think it's a good idea to vote for the tea party? Remember that when you are lending money to your family members who can't pay their bills because they were furloughed.

    Shame on the Republicans, always resisting everything the Obama Adminstration tries to pass, even when the people of America are in favor of it. Yesterday millions of people tried to access the AHC causing it to crash, that says enough in itself.
