I just want to ask dictator Obama when exactly is the redistribution of wealth going to take place??! I'm in the lower income level of America and I'm more poor now than I ever was while Bush was president.

From the actual 1 million vet march website. Seems they are distancing themselves from the confederate flag waving, and oath keepers, Cruz/Palin opportunity stunt that took place yesterday:
"The political agenda put forth by a local organizer in Washington DC was not in alignment with our message. We feel disheartened that some would seek to hijack the narrative for political gain. The core principle is about all Americans honoring Veterans in a peaceful and apolitical manner. Feel free to check out the 60+ rallies of the Million Vet March across the nation at our Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/pages/Million-Vet-March-on-the-Memorials/539097822833735.
...
Get ready to join a million vets in Washington DC and online! The Administration has closed down war memorials that are normally open 24/7 and that do not have any staff to guard them under normal circumstances."

It was an open rally...like it or not they had a right to be there.
And tell me if the dems don't do it.

Counter function sounds like something Gingrich would do to his latest mistress.

The Dems version of Sarah Palin is Al Sharpton. She has become what she so despised. I also find it ironic that Cruz is protesting over a shutdown park. It is kind of like burning down the grocery store then complaining that you have no place to buy food.
I heard a good statement today from someone. They said "you know how to tell when you are losing in American politics...you have Sarah Palin standing next to you"
Obama is the one who ordered up all the childish games and the greater part of the country sees it.
In all of the previous government shutdowns in the history of the country, has the president ever played these kind of games before?
I see your point......

Hah. Well done Dude.
You are wrong about the games.
You really need to study up on the Anti-deficiency Act and the rulings around it.

"The thoroughness of the closures this year makes sense only if you're banking on a long shutdown. Trash doesn't pile up overnight. And while on the first and second days of a shutdown it can seem idiotic to have cordoned off a playground at a federally run neighborhood park on Capitol Hill, by week three such a barrier will be a necessary legal warning that if you go in anyway and your toddler cuts herself on broken glass and that stayed there because no one is cleaning the place—well, that's on you, not the government.
"Without staff or funding to ensure the safety of visitors, the security of the memorials, and the continued operation and maintenance of park facilities, the memorials on the National Mall—just like Yellowstone and the Grand Canyon—are closed," Johnson, the NPS spokeswoman, said in a statement.
Cordoning spaces off or hanging signs in front of them even if they cannot be securely closed is a legal strategy for preemptively dealing with the things that can go wrong in abandoned spaces, and serves notice that if a site looks bad it's because of the shutdown, not willful neglect. D.C. has a terrible record of under-maintained public parks turning into disturbing hangouts for criminal activity, not to mention locales for trash-pileups and cozy vermin homes. In a shutdown of a couple of days, that's not much of a worry. But if could become more of one if the shutdown extends into November. (See my 2002 Washington City Paper piece, "Parks and Wrecks," if you want to a sense of what a public-safety disaster bad parks policy once created inside the District.) One week in, Mayor Vincent Gray announced the city would begin emptying trash cans in federally owned neighborhood parks that are easily accessible to city trash collectors, in a bid to prevent an increase in vermin citywide.
Already, there are signs of decay. C-SPAN's Howard Mortman tweeted on Wednesday morning: "#shutdown-related? Spotted 2 rotting roadkill deer carcasses southbound GW Pkwy this morning (below 123). GW Pky is a natl park @wtoptraffic." On his way home, he counted three carcasses."
Good article discussing the closures.
