Huh? As usual you completely lost me. No one from the White House has ever said the debt ceiling is about saving face. I think you made that up. Prove me wrong with a link.

Anyway, yes Rep. Marlin Stutzman, R-Ind did say that. I provided a link, click on it. No "he said, she said" about it. Here is another link. Left mouse button click on the word "link". You will be much less confused if you actually read the information provided, and I will be less confused if you provide information, any information at all. Please.
Where's Day 4, DonDiego? After all, you were so diligent about days one, two, and three. And we need to hear that since you toilet still flushes and since your icebox is still cold, and since you still have plenty of duct tape, everything is right in the world.

And in other news, Sarah Palin finally got her death panels; children suffering from cancer are being shutdowned out of last-chance clinical trials as we speak. And some on the right want to use those particular hostages to force the piecemeal funding of our otherwise shut down government.

Have a great day, DonDiego!
The Republicans offered a bill to fund the NIH but Reid and Obama refused. When Reid was pressed on the issue by a reporter he implied she was stupid.

Forky continues to peddle compromise as hostages

Forky's motto for political threads. Maybe someday he will grow a heart.

It is hard to call it anything else when its accurate and even Republicans don't deny it.

Strangling government to do this is not an appropriate course to go,” said Cuccinelli, the state’s attorney general... “Holding one part of government hostage to another part, I don’t think is a proper way to govern." - Ken Cuccinelli AKA "Cooch" current Republican Attorney General of Virginia and Republican nominee for Governor.

[L]et’s leave Obamacare for another day and not hold the vast majority of government functions hostage when the vast majority of government functions don’t have anything to do with the implementation and enforcement of Obamacare. - Mike Lee Republican Senator from Utah

Not to mention the Tea Party jackass Congressman from Texas Randy Neugebauer who publicly dressed down a park ranger and said she should be ashamed of herself for shutting down the World War II Memorial that was closed because of the shutdown he voted for

"The Park Service should be ashamed of themselves," said Neugebauer.
"I'm not ashamed," the Ranger retorted.

"You should be," sneered Neugebauer.

Temperance No. 51, temperance.
Democrats voting against any type of government spending is performing an unnatural act on their part.

Selective closures and furloughs being done are just that. Selective. Pick stuff that will make people angry and hope the MSM blames those not responsible for them. Demonize them for trying to stop what you are doing, all the while claiming they are doing it, and hope the MSM shoves that crap down the collective throats of the citizens of this country. The MSM is an absolute accomplice to the fraud that is Obama and the Democrat party.

Send National Park Service people to Mount Rushmore and have them block state highways under the authority of who? (The White House) Send the National Park Service to try to barricade Mount Vernon, even though it is privately funded under the authority of who? (The White House) Open air memorials in DC have never been fenced off during a government "shutdown". Never. Until now, under the authority of who? (The White House) The petulant man child who occupies the White House is throwing a tantrum. It isn't the first time he has intentionally hurt people in this country, and it won't be the last as long as some people remain blind to what is really happening.
