Myths About Government Shutdowns - cnsnews.com
"Myth: 'This kind of thing never used to happen.' Reality: Actually, it used to happen all the time. What's unusual is
the quiet stretch since the last shutdown, when Newt Gingrich and Bill
Clinton were facing off in 1995. Before that, there were 18 shutdowns in
19 years as various Congresses and presidents squabbled over raising
the national debt limit. My personal favorite is the one in 1982, when
Congress didn't feel like working late to pass a spending bill the night
before the new fiscal year started. The Republicans were all going to a
barbecue at the White House, while the Democrats had a $1,000-a-plate
fund-raising dinner to attend."
