Some of my bills are going to get paid late this month, that will incur late charges. I really don't know when they will be paid... there are clowns running this country, who did not cut their own pay, but cut my husband's. He is trying to come home from Ft. Benning, Georgia after out processing from the Army after 30 years of faithful service. He is an honor graduate of West Point, the Army War College, and he has spent the last two years in Afghanistan and Iraq. I am certain there will not be funds to fly him back to Texas... He received half pay... There are young families who will go without food... diapers... and the late fees that accumulate will put them hopelessly behind.
I was in front of Tony's in Sealy and heard you speak, you were late by the way, I didn't hear you mention cutting the military's pay in half in order to pressure the democrats. As I understand it, you did not cut your own pay... Would it have been too great a burden for your family to have your pay cut in half?
Soldiers will die today, and their families will be struggling through the paper work and bureaucracy involving their benefits while trying to get by on half pay...
Shame on all of you... go to the house... I mean the one you live in, where your bills will not go unpaid, and don't come back.
Never With More Sincerity,
Debra LeCompte

Sorry, I hit the enter button. There's just too much back door & secret meetings taking place & they seem bent on destroying the most wonderful, generous, godly country on this planet. Debra, the bible says that troublesome times will come, but Jesus has overcome this world. He's our greatest hope! I do pray for our troops, especially now, since the Taliban & Al Qeida {sorry for the spelling} are laying low just waiting for our troops to be removed from their country & it will be the same civil war that got us in this mess. I do feel for those that are innocent that's being used as sheilds. You & your husband & thousands of our military have had to carry a heavy burden. I, for one, salute your steadfastness & outreach, Debra! These things must come to pass to fulfill the prophecies in Revelation. May the Lord keep you, yours & all of our troops safe!

Debra LeCompte I would like to request from each of you permission to post your comments in my blog, From the Ranch. I believe this discussion to be the most on target information concerning all that has gone on in Washington this week... and state once again... The Bible speaks of only one man being "a man after God's own heart." David, a Soldier, a willing man... (you will have to read my previous blog post on a willing man... it is one of my best,) is the man declared specially loved by God. He had flaws and faults, just like any man... spent his whole life fighting and leading, with enemies that included corrupt leadership, (Saul, whom he loved and respected spent most of his life trying to kill David out of jealousy,) tempted on every side, sometimes falling to those temptations, and then suffering the agonizing pain of his own failure, and holding fast to God the entire time. He knew little of a peaceful life, always engaging some enemy, but finding his joy and peace in his deep love of God. Serving God remained through thick and thin, the only true passion of his entire life, and God raised a nation He calls "His People," from the seed of David... a Soldier. One would always do well to regard a Soldier possessed of a willing heart, with great respect. "He who honors me, him will I honor." Any man or woman God chooses to honor, is someone special, and over and over again, those God regards most are Soldiers.
