What evidence do you have that the administration had anything to do with shutting down monuments?
You have to really be taking big gulps of the Kool Aid to have missed all the stories about how far park services went to deliberately shut down monuments. There were even reported stories of government officials showing up at some independent park operators who were utilizing government land. They ordered those parks shut down. So they didn't have money to operate parks but they had money to send people to shut down parks the government doesn't even operate?
If you start questioning the official line from the Administration, you might ask why the President and his spokespeople kept threatening default on national debts when the servicing of the debt is mandated by the 14th Amendment and easily accomplished with one tenth of the incoming federal revenues. It was all a big house of cards once you started looking at it.
- GVIrish 13y agoIt's a bit ridiculous to accuse Kool Aid drinking when you haven't provided any evidence that the White House directly ordered NPS to close parks and monuments. It certainly is possible, but where is the proof? Even an off-the-record statement from a WH official would suffice. There are plenty of reasons to not take Obama's word at face value, and there are plenty of real things to criticize him over without making up stuff.
