I'm just speaking for myself. If we're going to 'shut down' the government, lets do it right and not pay these S.O.B's! Not a penny. In fact, we ought to be fining them. They are being paid to do a job and they are failing. What happens when they fail? They vote themselves in for a raise? Are you kidding me? Shut it down. No pay! Issue fines and start at the top! Boehner? You're about the top of the food chain, so you're amongst the first to feel the power of the pen.
As for the potential of shutting down Homeland Security? Sure... do it, right after the scum bags in DC send in reimbursement for pay they did not earn. Trim the fat... do something.
