US Government shutdown: The angriest Twitter reaction #DearCongress pic.twitter.com/lvL0vet9qI Sarah Macias (@SarahMacias1) October 2, 2013 I hope the shutdown doesn't stop the NSA from reading our email #heroes daveweigel (@daveweigel) October 1, 2013 Due to the shutdown, NASA's asteroid detection team isn't working. If an asteroid hits, let's hope it lands on Congress. CC:Indecision (@indecision) October 1, 2013 American Government started to shut down. Not sure what the fuss is. Italian Government shut down about 40 years ago and no one's noticed. Elizabeth Windsor (@Queen_UK) October 1, 2013 #TDSBreakingNews Congress still paid during shutdown. Part of plan to get country running on 100% renewable, clean-burning rage by 2014. The Daily Show (@TheDailyShow) October 2, 2013 I work in mysterious ways, but Congress doesn't work in pretty obvious ones. God (@TheTweetOfGod) October 2, 2013 So it's gonna be shutdown. Quelle surprise. So it goes. I grew up in a serious, functioning democracy. Now gone. That sucks, but oh well. John Schindler (@20committee) October 1, 2013 Call me crazy, but I got my ar15, 2 12 gauges, and 2 .40 Glocks looked and loaded in case this government shut down goes too far Cody Lochner (@Lochnerr27) October 2, 2013 This US shutdown is mad well you see (@alanaaxo_) October 2, 2013 Guys, I don't mean to be alarmist, but Nightline just said that the government shutdown means NO PANDA-CAM so THIS SH*T JUST GOT REAL. Molly Ephraim (@MollyEphraim) October 2, 2013 I can't think of an appropriate way to express how angry this government shutdown makes me.

Embarrassed to be a Republican right now!
