NEWBURYPORT — Pat Vaillancourt went on a trip last week that was intended to showcase some of America’s greatest treasures.
Instead, the Salisbury resident said she and others on her tour bus witnessed an ugly spectacle that made her embarrassed, angry and heartbroken for her country.

That's a shame. If only the Republicans would stop humiliating the country on the world stage and fund the government we wouldn't have this problem.

We have Gestapo tactics in this forum - name calling and blame throwing by liberals constantly with very little substance.

If only obama would have presented a workable budget that the House and Senate could have approved, we would not have this problem!
Even his Demoncrap Senate gave his budget a unanimous negative vote!
With a budget in place, there would be NO NEED for a Continuing Resolution!

I have a problem with articles that insist on using the term "gestapo". It rather harms the articles' credibility.

If this story is true, no doubt there will be video of the rangers' behavior. I can't imagine a busload of Japanese tourists not having a cell phone without video capacity.

Really? Old people. Tourists. War veterans. Regardless of which side of the aisle you sit on, and regardless of how you feel about the shutdown, you can read an article like this and your only response is to tell the Repubs to stop humiliating the country?

Really?

And these government workers ARE on the job but now their job is keeping the public out.

Make Americans FEEL THE PAIN of Congress not doing their job.
But the irony is that these workers are at work and will get their back pay only now their "job" is keeping Americans away.

Are you suggesting that the OP, the person who started this discussion, is one of those "liberals" who constantly post things with very little substance?

I wouldn't call those Gestapo tactics. Just immature tactics.
