Shutdown looms as Pawlenty lashes out at Hatch

Tom Mason, Pawlenty's senior adviser, said the question of potential conflict was "a pretty significant one. The question deserves to be asked."

Whew. I thought for a minute it might be another of those dirty liberals. You go T.Paw! Why do the hard work of trying to actual figure out the budget mess? Numbers only help the liberals anyway.
