Making Noise During the Shutdown

I'm often moved to pick up the phone and complain to my reps about the lack of support that I often witness for returning troops but nothing could have prepared me for the level of rage that I felt as I read the story of 4 Army Rangers killed on Sunday by a female suicide bomber.  13 of these Army Ranger's peers were badly injured and still not stable enough to move from Landstuhl to Walter Reed.  Due to the shutdown, there is no immediate money for distinguished transfers of the fallen?  Really?  Anyone who can cast a vote in the next election for any Republican OR Democrat seated at this time involved in this mess needs to have their head examined.  I'm unsure how this will all end up, but my prayer is that some celebrity will give up a handbag or a new outfit  in order to provide the funding to these families who have already sacrificed so much.  Meditation, prayer, yoga, I'm utilizing all of it this week in order to cope with so much loss.
