    Well I guess the government is just preparing them for when they get 1/2 pay. I see what your saying Denny the second half of their pay will take place during the possible shutdown. Still pretty shitty deal any way you look at it.

      Im probably going to get jumped for saying this, BUT

      the bright side of the military not getting paid will be that Obama will buy his ticket out of the White House. There will be a lot of pissed off military members and families that will not vote for his ass come 2012

      We all know he has the power to pay them, he is just being an asshole.

        Ya. I received a payment in full from the DoD about 4 days ago for $3XX,XXX and just sent another one off. I'll let you know how that one goes. I have one that should be coming back for about $5XX,XXX around the 20th. I have received no notice of delay, though. I usually hear that if there is a problem with delivery. My invoices might keep getting paid since the whole funding for my contract was set aside in full. Granted, it's a lot smaller than the Dept. of Army, but money is still money.

          We can only hope so. I'm trying to see that the glass is half full, but I don't even think that the line is at the half-way point.

            They will somehow lose all their ballots.

                  I'm having a hard time looking at the bright side, but I guess if there is one this would be it.

                  He is a huge asshole, just dislikes the military in general. Yet doesn't have a problem sending us anywhere.

                      Most people I talk to have nothing but good things to say about you, but you sure come across as a condescending prick. Do you have an inferiority complex you've attempted to overcome through overachievement? Or were you fondled as a child?

                      You and slow99 should date. You both have passive aggressiveness down pat.

                        You'll be seeing a 4th front before the year is over.

                            I'm sure we as a country will, but I'm done after this deployment. Just too much crap to want to stay in any longer at the moment.

                              Just another thought, If they don't have any money to pay us, does that mean we will be stuck in this hell hole until they get the funds to send us home? I'm due to roll out next week.

                                Flying you home is not an essential duty. Sorry, continue to sweat your balls off.
