I received this in email and thought it worth passing along
I have worked in the government on and off for 40 years. During that time I became quite familiar with requisitions, bidding, awarding contracts etc. It is a time- consuming process with bean-counters and pencil-necked bureaucrats every step of the way. The simplest request takes months.. not days or hours.
Now follow me please.. let it sink in of what it takes...... In less than 8 hours of the shutdown, miraculously, professionally printed 3X4 foot signs appeared all over the country in the tens of thousands saying this [park, facility, etc. with custom logos for EACH parks name on it] was closed due to government shutdown.. let THAT sink in... There has not been a government shutdown in 17 years. These signs were designed, specifications were determined, signs were then requisitioned, bids were posted and vetted, government contracts were awarded...... in 8 HOURS!! The materials were then ordered and the signs manufactured then distributed by U. S. Mails or freight companies.. the fastest they could possibly have had them would be over-night...... ALL of this in EIGHT HOURS!!!!
Something as simple as a sign PROVES This shutdown was orchestrated and planned well in advance at least 6-8 month ago. Millions of tax dollars were appropriated and spent in this process.... in 8 hours
There is a paper trail a mile long leading directly to the White House.. Like that's a big surprise...
However, something as simple as a freshly painted sign being made AND SHOWN in just a few hours raises suspicion... it seems like a simple overlook to everyone else, but after 40 years of Government work I knew the TRUTH was right there driven into the ground, or posted at the Main gate. Let me remind you, 10's of THOUSANDS were made! With the Parks names on them!! Common sense must kick in at some point. At LEAST 6 to 8 months ago.

So, the 40 pump handles were removed in record time on the C&O trail. How long to re-install them? Just wonderin’. LOL! Maybe in the spring if they were in fact planned to be removed in order to “winterize” them.
That sign looks more like it’s made from coregated plastic but it would still have to be done at a professional printing shop. Not something they could run off on their office printer. This “how did they get signs so quickly” has been discussed here frequently. Of course, this shutdown was planned months ago. I believe the House was in on it. I also believe the ever so conveninet EBT card crash was part of it. His entire second term flexibility will be played out the same way. Adios, America.
I always wondered how the cheerleaders organized out in the streets so fast after it had been announced that we got Bin Laden.
I posted that a few days ago. I worked for the military as a civil service member and I know how hard it is to buy a tire during a natural disaster. This was preplanned.
That's why the threat of shutting down food stamps, and the various “glitches” that have happened to the system.

The pResident is running a protection racket, showing America what he can do if he is denied his way. I think he is also testing to see just what the reaction will be to various scenarios should they come to pass.
It's almost like the government (as a whole) is gauging our reaction and counting how many of us show up at protests or make calls.
We do indeed live in perilous times.
I wonder what would happen if congress shut down the government and we refused to react? No conservatives - anywhere to be seen. Silence.
Kind of the way the forest becomes silent as a panther enters.
