Real Reason For Looming Government Shutdown: Abortion, Environment

I'm tired of typing; read these guys instead. Brian Beutler of TPM and David Dayen of FDL have both done a good job of explaining how the Tea-Nutcakes takeover of the GOP will shut down government services tomorrow: they don't like women making their own decisions, and they want a free hand in destroying the environment.
