{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: National Park warning - closed

McFly and all,
 
I know this is a challenging time for our Nation, but please keep political rants and opinions off of this fly fishing community forum.  They are completely inappropriate here and can only cause divisions and anger within our membership.  There are plenty of other forums, comment sections on news sites, political sites, etc. to air these types of feelings, so let's stick to fly fishing related commentary here.  Continued infractions will result in the suspension of posting privileges.  Let's not let it come to that for anyone.

I have friends that live in England and France and they both said their leaders would never shut down the whole government to accommodate special interest groups like insurance and oil companies. I think more than a few of our elected leaders have gone into business for themselves. I don't care what comes up the Republicans always come back to Obamacare. They're willing to let the country run if they kill Obamacare, they will pass gun control laws if the kill Obamacare, these guys have been paid to vote a certain way when health care issues come up and now Obamacare is screwing all that up. These members of congress say they are looking out for future generations but cut much needed funding for things we actually need and give tax breaks to companies that do nothing to stimulate the economy. The sad thing is they're Americans that don't want Obamacare because one a black president got it passed and two Republicans who have cut medical benefits in the pass are telling them this will ruin the country. These are the same people that show up in the emergency room with no insurance, no money and expensive health problems, that thinks it's better not to have anything.

Hey guys,

Just a heads up – due to our nations congressional refusal to do the work of the people, it looks like your favorite National Parks fishing areas are closed.

Barriers are up along the Tidal Basin in SW near my apt, and as of 9:30am, there were cones closing the Duck Pond parking and the Gravelly Point parking areas.

Just a heads up if you plan on making a long distance trip to a park, please call the park office and find out if it's even open.
