Politics Aside: We Need Our Money

I did not have to go far to find the topic for this blog. As a military spouse and mother, the government shut down weighs heavily on my mind. WTF!!! Troops don't question when asked to put their lives on the line to fight for this country. The least our government can do is ensure that they are paid for that service.

The politicians in Washington, D.C. share the blame for this situation. The Democrats failed to pass a budget when they had the power last year. And now, the Republicans are so drunk with power that they are leaning closely toward to shutting the government down. Rather than come to some sort of mature compromise. This is not just about my family. Their actions have wide ranging impacts that stretch much farther than the military.
