    Due to the possibility of the Continuing Resolution expiring, we paid you for
    service performed through April 8. The debt showing on your record is for the
    amount due you for 9-15 April which will be paid as soon as authorization is
    received from Congress. We apologize for the inconvenience.

    I got one of those about 2 hours ago.

    Then our colonel and first shirt briefed us about things to keep people afloat while we dont get paid.

    Meanwhile I was browsing for a trg22 and a motorcycle. God it feel great to save money for fun things

    I am glad the shutdown is happening, but they NEED to pay the military, no matter what, govt shut down or not. That is fucking ridiculous that our military is not gonna get paid, but planned parenthood is, fucking bullshit.

    This budget was due Oct 1, 2010.

    How many of us would still have our jobs being 6 months late with a budget?

    It looks like we are still being sold out. No cutting foreign aid, EPA still free to make law. Not much cause for celebration.

    We are fucked, not to get political, but one party hasnt realised that they have a lot of new people in office, and they are gonna be ALL new people if they keep pulling this shit.

    I agree with avoiding the political, but i think its really both sides. As my now long passed dad used to say...."Show me a polititian and Il show you a crook". Not universally true, but largely. Everyone has their own agenda and its mostly to appropriate the power and money for themselves regardless the cost to others or our country.
