A good old government shut down is what we need now, I agree

A good old government shutdown is exactly what we need right now (msn.com)

and 86 paying government employees after the shutdown for another paid vacation, I doubt either party have nads to whats best for the country.
I'm not going to disagree. But the Obama white house had a bizarre defnition of which employees were essential vs non.

turns out white house calligraphers, pastry chefs, and dog walkers were essential.

thousands of normal GS workers in agencies like the IRS, social security, and Dept of Education got furloughed. And then got 100% of their missed pay when called back to work.

In many cases those workers continued to work, even though furloughed.

Got a link to the crew you say were not sent home? There isn't anyone designated as a "dog walker". The aide that typically did that had many other responsibilities...not just attending the dogs.

Reggie Love was an Obama aide who earned $102,000, but to the extent that dog handling took any of his time, it was a small fraction of his total duties, and "dog handler" certainly wasn’t his title.
PolitiFact | Does Obama have a 'dog-trainer on retainer for $102,000 a year at taxpayer expense'?

I know of about 80 thousand new armed IRS employees we can do without.
