More proof the shutdown was PLANNED!
I saw this interview with a Government worker. He has a valid question:

Sun, 6 Oct 2013 12:46:52 -0700
Did anyone besides me wonder how they got all those signs printed and distributed far and wide, including to all the national parks and cemeteries overseas only eight to ten hours after the government shut down? Take a look at this from someone who wanted to remain anonymous.

I have worked in the government on and off for 40 years. During that time I became quite familiar with requisitions, bidding, awarding contracts etc. It is a time consuming process with bean-counters and pencil-necked bureaucrats every step of the way. The simplest request takes months not days or hours.

In less than 8 hours of the shutdown, miraculously, professionally printed 3X4 foot signs appeared all over the country in the tens of thousands saying-“this [park, facility, etc. with custom logos] closed due to government shutdown. There has not been a government shutdown in 17 years. These signs were designed, specifications were determined, signs were then requisitioned, bids were posted and vetted, government contracts were awarded. The materials were then ordered and the signs manufactured then distributed U.S. Mails or freight companies.

This shutdown was orchestrated and planned well in advance at least 6-8 months ago. Millions of tax dollars were appropriated and spent in this process. There is a paper trail a mile long leading directly to the White House.

That's a very good point. I went to the national park here and they have the 3x4 sign and it looked very professional. Definitely not something they got in an email and told to print out.

Someone needs to go back and find when bids were opened on printing signs.

Agreed, wouldn't be too hard to do. I own a small business and have signs similar to these printed from time to time. I know on a rush project the sign companies in town take anywhere from 24 to 48 hours to print something up.

Re: More proof the shutdown was PLANNED!
I feel like it's obvious that they planned it.

Whether it's nwo planned or just government bullshittery planned, it was planned.

I wouldn't be surprised if it was planned a decade or more ago.

They knew sometime something would need fixing, economically speaking.

Well, it's not done yet, but did anyone catch the message on cSPAM from the president? regarding The National Emergencies Act. It is being enacted or (continued) due to violent narcotic trafficers from Columbia?? WTF??? This basically gives him the right to due many things without the vote of Congress...
