U.S. foreign policy takes the latest hit as the government shutdown enters its fourth day.
With his focus on the brewing domestic crisis, the White House canceled President Barack Obama's trip to the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in Bali, Indonesia.
"The president made this decision based on the difficulty in moving forward with foreign travel in the face of a shutdown, and his determination to continue pressing his case that Republicans should immediately allow a vote to reopen the government," a statement from the White House said.
Secretary of State John Kerry will lead the U.S. delegation in Asia.

Let's start the legal process now and rid ourselves of those who seek the destruction of American and those who can not be loyal to this government. They have created the means of a financial war designed to end our way of life.
The Tea Party is doing you a huge favor and you label them terrorists for it. The Tea Party built America in the first place fighting against an overtaxing invasive tyrannical foriegn government. The Tea Party was resurrected from the dead to fight against an overtaxing invasive tyrannical foreignor you fools illegally elected to top office.
You seem to think that Obama is a foreigner. You are repeating a lie. Obama was born in Hawaii, and even if he wasn't, he was born to a U.S. Citizen, making him American. Stop. You look uneducated when you repeat this garbage.
The people destroying America? That would be the people "fundamentally transforming" America! You liberals have less than two functioning brain cells.
Hyperbole and garbage. No facts. Naturally.
Hamsta is this really you. When did you have The to your name.
Hyperbole and garbage acurately describes everything Obame say: I'm going to close Gitmo, you can keep your doctor, Bengahzi was the result of a Youtube video, Al Quaeda is on their heels and Chevy is alive.....etc.....etc....
I don't suppose you know that Congress has to close Gitmo, do you? And we know how much they like working with Obama. As you for your other talking points: please present EVIDENCE that not even Issa could find. If morons wouldn't be so eager to have instant answers, more investigation could be done before telling the public anything.
The Tea Party is doing the same thing they did more than 200 years ago. Defending America from overtaxing, invasive, tyrannical government!
Methinks you haven't a clue as to what "tyrannical" means. And do you enjoy being trolled and continuing to be another sock puppet for Roem?
Your echo chamber must be confining with both of you in there.
When police departments get military tanks to serve warrants with (yes this is happenimg) you can't tell me that we don't have a tyrannical government.
Is this an everyday occurence? Everywhere? Can I have that link, too? Or is it some small town PD doing this? Thanks.
Don't forget Harry Reid doesn't care if a child dies of cancer but democrats like the idea of murdering babies. This is who you want in charge of your child's healthcare? You liberals have less than two functioning brain cells.
Context. He never said anything about cancer and kids at all. He was responding to Shumer, saying we shouldn't pick and choose the parts of the gov to fund; fund ALL of it. Cnn won't let me post the exact quote.
Does Roem think telling a joke to the Faux Hamsta is a personall attack? Roem doesn't even know he has been found out.
When the "ruling" class forces taxes on their serfs and replaces the finest healthcare system on earth with mediocre service, government bureacracy, death panels and rationing that 80% of the population DON'T WANT, that would be tyrannical government
The "death panel" garbage has been debunked; insurance companies have always had panels decide coverage. And 80% is a fallacy; link it. Did you see the poll where people overwhelmingly supported the ACA over Obamacare? They're the same thing!
Banasy didn't attack Hamsta personally at all.
Lol @ banasy fort knox would be easier to penetrate than that thick skull of hamstas or hamsta wannabe! Not to mention the lack of mental capacity to retain whatever info did manage to get in. You know that "R" word that i detest so much? It sure does apply to this fool.
I think they are very passionate on their convictions, chrissy.
Hes just a disaster lookin for a place to happen and he picked cnn to be the chosen spot of his mental breakdown!
Who said this?
“Your purpose, then, plainly stated, is that you will destroy the Government, unless you be allowed to construe and enforce the Constitution as you please, on all points in dispute between you and us. You will rule or ruin in all events.”
FDR said the fear quote. Abraham Lincoln said the quote I posted. AL would be labeled a RINO today.
Democrats opposed the abolition of slavery, Democrats opposed the civil rights movement, democrats want to put ya'll back in chains. How exactly would Abraham Lincoln be considered a RINO?
Everyone knows that the Dixiecrats went GOP after 1964; they considered LBJ a traitor for the Civil Rights Act. If AL were alive, he'd be called a RINO just like all of the moderate GOP are today. And they are called that by their own party.
Tell your lies to someone else banasy. Everyone is watching liberalism destroy places such as California, Detroit and Chicago. It took a natural disaster, Katrina, to make New Orleans look like the damage liberalism has done to Detroit. Liberalism is the leperosy of society, businesses and rich people leave the decaying liberal cities and states in droves to relocate in conservative cities and states. Even Hollywood is leaving California and relocating in New Orleans.
Look up Dixiecrats. Focus.
Red states take more than they give. Your precious red states would wither if the government took out its bases and contract jobs. Be careful what you ask for, moochers.
2014 and 2016 aren't far away, dems lost the house in 2010 and might lose everything in 2014 and 2016 because they don't care what the population wants, they are the "ruling" class in their minds and you are their serf.
I think the GOP will never regain the Senate; they can't gerrymander. I think you underestimate the level of animosity towards the intransigent GOP right now. WH? Not until at least 2024.
Ya know it doesn't take a rocket scientist to know insurance companies were gonna jack up the costs to consumers as much as they could BEFORE the ACA law went into affect. That was Obamas whole intent in the first place, to place regulations on all things medical because HE like many people know we are being overcharged by insurance companies, and pharmacuetical companies and the medical profession.
Its similar to the housing market before the recession. If you really wanta know if your representatives have your best interest at heart just check to see who was provided financial backing by any of these medical companies. Medicine is big business and dont be fooled. Its all about the money!
