Day 12:  Federal Employees Held Hostage

News reports say the House Republicans basically held a “pep rally” today vowing to “stick together” and “hold strong” against any plan that does not cave in to their demands.  So much for negotiation.  But it’s Saturday, so let’s take a break from following the idiocy.  Here’s a link to a Huffington Post article about John Stewart’s interview with Malala Yousafzai, someone who has actually demonstrated real courage.  Stewart says he wants to adopt her.  Can we get her to take over as Speaker of the House instead?
