    jst
    Don't forget..... We are facing a government wide shutdown if congress does not address the CR by COB March 27, 2013. Now wouldn't that be somthing folks. Right before furloghs start, the government shuts down and stays down right up to when the furloghs start. Also, what makes people think that we are going to have retro pay for these days off? Is not going to happen folks, not this time. Congress is not going to fund payback monies at all. Those days are long gone and with the Tea Party pull the reigns in on this, you can bet this will never happen again.
