His "reasoning" being that he does not want to negotiate with Democrats. Wow! This guy is a lunatic!
I was a Federal employee and got furloughed when Gingrich got the government shutdown. I was off work for about 6 weeks. Did it bother me? Nope. The paycheck came through at the end of the shutdown for the entire time I was furloughed. Gingrich and the Republicans just cost the government millions of dollars and that lead to their next big defeat.

Gingrich is also responsible for Clinton being one of the few presidents with a balanced budget in many years. And no president has ever had a balanced budget without a Republican controlled congress. When Clinton had a Democrat controlled congress, he ran deficits in the billions.
You libtards claim how much you care for people, including children, but do not care about bankrupting the country for your children. Don't get me wrong, today's Republicans are almost as bad as the leftards in congress. No fiscal responsibility. Always worried about getting re-elected.
It is pathetic when you realize that the last president to EVER pay down on the National Debt was Eisenhower. That was a long time ago.
