BTL #82 - FEAR OF OPTIMISM (w/ GUEST: SEAN PROPHET) - 10/14/13

In Which We Discuss:

1. Fearing the outbreak of optimism sweeping the nation, Congress decides to not make any deals on the debt ceiling or government shutdown

2. Polls show that most Americans would vote for literally anyone other than their current representatives

3.  In positive shutdown news, the first Obama nominee not subject to intense opposition is likely to be approved by the supposedly non-working Senate

4.  Voters at the Value Voters Summit prove through straw poll results that their values are...mostly non existent

5.  A trip in the way back machine to the weirdest election in California history

6.  Michele Bachmann states that the endtimes are here, and if China’s hornet situation is any indication, she might be right
