All I know was that I was not told. We were called into a conference room, one by one and had to sign a paper that we had been told that we were not to report to work and that we would not be paid. I was working in Washington at the time.

Shutting down the government is not going to get other people jobs, it's not going to make a difference for people without jobs and it's not going to lower the deficit. It's just a political stunt to make a point. I really don't think the people who elected a majority in the House, did it so they could shut down the government.

And what is happening in Wisconsin is a travesty. It's not about money. I'm not a big fan of the teacher's unions, but what is going on in WI is just ham fisted bullying.
