This guy is a poster boy for the left. He epitomizes their disrespect for this country and it's heroes. As I said, anyone but a lib that pays for HBO is a fool.

His point was legitimate. They posed for pictures with one of the congressmen most responsible for the memorial being shut down. That's stupid.

You can respect a group of people for being heroes. Doesn't make them smart. Forrest Gump was a war hero.

If you point is taking the words of someone out of context and trying to make them appear to be offensive, congratulations.

If I based my opinion of conservatives solely based on what Rush says, I'd want you all to die slow, painful deaths.

Where do you get the crap you spew? The government would be funded if Reid would present the funding bills. Mean while, obamas chef is an essential federal employee.

Agreed. It's hard to imagine he lives in this country.

There was a time a POS like that would have been booted off the air for stuff like that, instead he'll probably get a big raise.

You are adding to that assumption.

I'd pay good money to have five minutes alone with Maher.

Love the way LIBERALS dismiss Disrespectful behavior.

No reason for the memorials to be closed at all, government slow down or not. Only one responsible for them being closed is the person who ordered them closed.

So this IS essential government spending in your eyes then?

Make up your mind.

So "essential government spending" in your eyes are Obama's golf trips. Troll Clown.

Ummm...he's on subscription cable. Turn the channel or cancel the service. I would find it really hard to believe that you weren't aware of his positions and similar comments beforehand.

And are you seriously going to make such a comment with a straight face and not similarly call for the dismissal of folks like Hannity, Hewitt, Levin, Beck, Rush, O'Reilly, etc.? Really?

Why shouldn't a memorial be essential enough in a partial shut down? Memorials are for veterans and families of veterans, along with others, to remember the fallen soldiers. I understand that soldiers who fought/fight for our freedom really don't mean anything to most of liberal un-America, but they still shouldn't shut those down.

You just named people who aren't afraid to call obama and his adminitration out. None of who you just named are into insulting our war veterans and such. You really need some different material because the sh*t you're using lately doesn't cut it.

National parks are closed. IRS call centers have no staff. Countless government websites have been taken down.

Yet despite these changes -- which range from inconveniences to major headaches -- a number of not-so-essential government operations are still up and running.

Here are a few that have evaded the partial government shutdown:

The Denali Commission:

You've probably never heard of The Denali Commission. But the tiny Alaska-based economic development agency gained some notoriety after it emerged that the group's inspector general was petitioning Congress to de-fund it.

But guess what agency survived the "shutdown?" According to its own contingency plan, because the commission's staffers are paid under the prior year's budget, all 14 employees are exempt from furlough, and "reporting to work."

White House Twitter:

Right as Congress missed the deadline last week to pass a spending bill, first lady Michelle Obama's office informed its Twitter followers that "due to Congress's failure to pass legislation to fund the government," updates to the official first lady Twitter account would be limited.

But the White House Twitter account is alive and well.

The account has blasted out a series of tweets calling on Congress to end the budget impasse.

'Let's Move':

While a number of government websites have been temporarily taken offline, and the first lady's Twitter account has been largely abandoned, not so for Michelle Obama's "Let's Move" campaign.

The website for the first lady's healthy-living initiative remains operational -- though it doesn't appear to have been updated much since late September. The top of the site displays the message: "Cheers to water!"

Park Rangers on Patrol:

Despite national parks and monuments being shuttered across the country for lack of funds, the National Park Service is devoting considerable resources to putting up barricades and patrolling them.

An innkeeper along the Blue Ridge Parkway who was forced to close his business due to the partial shutdown told FoxNews.com that park rangers have set up a "24/7 blockade" outside his inn -- to prevent would-be customers from coming in.

Obama Campaign Stop:

President Obama canceled a long-planned trip to Asia over the budget impasse.

But he nevertheless ventured outside the Beltway last week for a rally in nearby Rockville, Md., to pressure Republicans to pass a budget bill.

Patent Office:

Happen to invent something during the budget stalemate?

Good news. The United States Patent and Trademark Office is open for business. According to the office, it's using fees from the prior year to keep running, and should be able to for roughly four weeks.

IRS Taking, But Not Giving:

IRS call centers are closed, and the IRS is not issuing refunds during the partial shutdown.

The agency, though, will gladly accept tax payments during that time.

The IRS says in a statement on its website: "The IRS will accept and process all tax returns with payments, but will be unable to issue refunds during this time."

Maher is entitled to his opinion just as we are entitled to give his opinion the scorn it so richly deserves. Closing open air memorial however seems unnecessary. Our WWII veterans are vanishing rapidly and for some coming in on these honor flights it could well be their last chance to visit the memorial. To deny them that opportunity is reprehensible. This is an open air memorial and the veterans who visit it are not there to trash it. Most go their to pay respects to those who didn't come back. I almost guarantee that if a call went out for volunteers to man the memorial during this shut down you would have more than enough and probably would not notice that the normal attendants weren't there. But that wouldn't serve the purpose of making people aware of the shut down.
