Strange to say the conservatives are the ones wanting to change the status quo while the progressives are the one wanting to keep it.

It is a pretty interesting bit of irony.  Obviously that's not the case all of the time, but it was in both of the last two government shutdowns. 

Of course, you could say that the conservatives wanted to "return to a previous status quo"; but the progressives were defending the status quo of the time that the event occurred.  Something had changed a few years ago that they liked and they wanted to keep it, and conservatives didn't like it and wanted to get rid of it. 

Yes I know... some would say the democrats now are conservatives and the republicans are regressivists =p
