At the WWII Memorial on the National Mall:

So, the WWII memorial is open today... Park police letting everyone by right now. #shutdown

No attempt to stop any WWII visitors right now. Maybe after the congressmen leave ... #shutdown pic.twitter.com/SZmxBfh2cr

As noted in the last post, Congressman Steve King "distracted" the Capitol Park Police while the veterans, per their training, rushed over the barriers.

Here's a brief Vine video of the veterans reclaiming their Memorial from Obama's Shutdown Theater Prop Workshop.

This is just one FUBO. The people (voters) KNOW this is just theater. These sites don’t “close”.

What dipstick ordered it shut down?

You need to ask? Obama of course. It was shut down to be a thorn in America's side.

on the progress website it states that the RNC is taking email addresses, so now the elft is trying to say republican workers are there and getting 90 year old e-mail addresses and that we’re trying to recruit them.

The left are completely nuts

Just wait til America rises and watch these guys show everyone how it’s done!

Yes, and it could all start with one gigantic march on DC. It can be done. The big puch back is long overdue.

Don’t rule it out. Parkies already think themselves defenders of the pristine from the unwashed rabble & they are capable of fascistic behavior.

Remember Senator Harry Reid complaining about tourists in the US Capitol Building because he didn't like the smell?

I watched PandaCam for the first time a bit last night. The only thing I saw move were his lips when he was exhaling. A continuous loop would work.

He was so cute and looked so cuddly. Then I read about Gu Gu

Note to self, never try to hug a Panda.

What’s more ridiculous is saying that the trail is affected by the shutdown.

They closed the National Forest next to my neighborhood. What if I need a squirrel or a plant or something??? http://www.fs.usda.gov/gwj

The US Park Police were trying to close off the WWII Memorial as part of Obama's Shutdown Theater. Congressman Steve King and a veterans group over-ran the barricades and are occupying the Memorial.

Our Greatest Generation has had their fill of this nonsense! Man the barricades and storm the beaches, men!

I LOVE IT!

In all seriousness. Who is paying the police to set up the barricades and man them? I thought the government was shut down?
