What a Load of...
why don't they think clearly about this?
If the government shuts down Friday, I would have no problem supporting a military coup. The president and congress will get paid, regardless, but our troops (many of whom are living paycheck to paycheck) will stop getting paid. Unbelievable. Though, it's good to hear that Speaker Boehner thinks they shouldn't get paid if the doors close.
Hey, how about taking those checks and paying our fighting men with them?
