ABC News: 'Chances of Government Shutdown 99.9%
ABC is reporting that it is now almost certain Congress and the White House will not reach an agreement to avoid a government shutdown.
On Sunday’s This Week, ABC’s chief White House correspondent Jonathan Karl said, “I would now put the chances of a government shutdown at 99.9 percent” (video follows with transcript and commentary):

GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: Jon, hard to say how long it will last, but this makes some kind of shutdown late tomorrow all but certain.
JONATHAN KARL: Oh, that’s right, George. Positions have hardened. Time is running out. I would now put the chances of a government shutdown at 99.9 percent. It was after midnight in a raucous session last night that the House did what they did. The bill, what it would actually do, would fund the government until December, it would delay ObamaCare for one year, and it would repeal a tax on medical devices that’s part of the healthcare law. They also separately passed a provision that would fund the troops regardless of a government shutdown.
The White House response was swift, George, to Jay Carney saying, “Today Republicans in the House of Representatives moved to shut down the government.” And it's hard to disagree with that because the Senate absolutely will not pass what just passed in the House. And George, the Senate doesn't get back into session until 2:00 tomorrow afternoon. That is ten hours before the government shuts down.
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS, HOST: So, they send their bill right back to the House. What happens next?
KARL: Well, unclear, but what I am hearing this morning from Republicans is that they will still attempt to put provisions in there dealing with the healthcare law and send it back to the Senate. This ping pong back and forth will go on. No signs of compromise on either side.
STEPHANOPOULOS: And then the question is how long will that go, a couple of days, or does it stretch on maybe up to the point where we reach that second major deadline, the debt limit reach on October 17? Far more serious, but does this back and forth make it more likely that we'll avoid a confrontation over the debt limit?
KARL: Well, there are two schools of thought on this. One is that this works out so poorly for the Republicans that they realize they can't go to the brink again with the debt ceiling. On the other side of this, George, positions have gotten so hardened here and there's such division that it’s hard to imagine a compromise on the debt ceiling either. That said, I should tell you that aides to the Speaker of the House tell me that they are confident that the debt ceiling will be dealt with, that there will not be a default. I just can't see exactly how we get there by October 17.

If they do that, then we take over beginning at the local level. Easy, no money, the debt belongs to them, we can govern ourselves right at the local level, then send reps from our local governance, to the regional in the state and then to state with other local reps coming FROM THE PEOPLE AND NOT THE PROFESSIONAL SELL OUTS, AND FINALLY NO FRIGGEN LAWYERS TO CREATE MORE LAWS AND REGULATIONS. FREE, AT LAST, ALMIGHTY GOD, WE WILL BE FREE AT LAST.... YAHOO, DO IT, YOU "TOTALLY INSANE" MF'S. TOO BAD YOU CAN'T GET YOUR HANDS ON SOCIAL SECURITY SINCE ITS IN A TRUST FUND, HUH? THAT IS WHAT YOU HAVE BEEN GOING FOR, ISN'T IT? We have the earliest debt of that currently in existance so we get first dibs on all Fed property, parks, BLM, FORESTS, ETC. YOU GOT A PROBLEM, BIG TIME. GO AHEAD AND BUST US AND WATCH US DO LIKE ICELAND AND RECOVER DISPITE THE DAMAGE YOU HAVE DONE. BRING IT ON........ AND EVERYONE, RESPOND IMMEDIATELY, GATHER PEOPLE TOGETHER AT YOUR LOCAL LEVEL AND GET SIGNATURES FROM YOUR NEIGHBORS, CO-WORKERS, FRIENDS, RELATIVES AND SET UP YOUR LOCAL GOVERNANCE, AND KICK EVERYONE OUT CURRENTLY HOLDING OFFICE AND BEGIN MOVING UP THE LADDER TO THE NEXT LEVEL AND DO IT ALL THE WAY TO STATE, WITH MILLIONS OF US OUT THERE, THEY WILL LEAVE PEACEFULLY. Then appoint leaders for state until we can get an election set up and the first thing to do is reapprove the state Constitution and a resolution SUPPORTING THE ORGANIC ORIGINAL CONSTITUTION FOR A FEDERAL GOV AND WHEN WE GET SET UP AT ALL STATES, AND ELECT A NEW CONGRESS AND PRESIDENT, AND VP, THEN HAVE THE NEWLY ELECTED PRES APPOINT NEW SUPREMES AND GET THE OLD ONES OFF THAT BENCH, THEN SEND THE RESOLUTION TO EVERY STATE TO PASS ON THE ORGANIC CONSTITUTION AND RESCIND THE CORPORATE CONSTITUTION AND TAKE ALL "CAFR FUNDS" IN THE TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS FROM EVERY SINGLE FED AGENCY AND DISTRIBUTE THE FUNDS TO THE STATES, BY POPULATION TO CONTINUE FUNCTIONING. RECRUIT SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS TO AID IN THIS PROCESS, SINCE THEY KNOW HOW TO SET UP SYSTEMS. BRING EVERYONE IN ON IT AND MAKE IT AN "AMERICAN SECOND REVOLUTION" AND KICK ISRAEL AND BRITAINS AMBASSADORS OUT UNTIL THEY SIGN A CONTRACT NEVER TO UNDERMINE OUR COUNTRY AGAIN, OR THEY CAN NEVER SET FOOT HERE.
TAKE THIS AND TWEAK IT TO WHATEVER WORKS OR FITS FOR YOU BUT WATCH OUT FOR THE INFILTRATORS ALL ALONG THE WAY. i APOLOGIZE FOR THE SYNTAX ETC, I GOT EXCITED THAT WE MIGHT ACTUALLY HAVE A SHUT DOWN GOVERNMENT, WHICH MEANS THE PEOPLE RULE. LOL AND MY WRITING SUFFERED FOR THAT EXCITEMENT. LETS ROCK AND ROLL, THE CRAZY'S ARE NO LONGER GOING TO BE IN CHARGE OF THE LOONEY BIN. iN FACT, IF THEY SHUT IT DOWN, THERE WILL BE NO GOVERNMENT AND THAT WAY WE CAN FINALLY TAKE OVER.
