President Obama stated Monday that he would support a 20% pay reduction for retiring military personnel as well as redefining benefits for those that leave before achieving 20 year of service. So it’s only a matter of time before these recommendations are realized.
Obama has been cutting natural born citizens out of the military while simultaneously hiring illegal immigrants. He has also been ending highly successful military programs and allowing different components the military to simply degrade, prompting the Washington Times to state that Obama has our decimated our military, leaving the US only ‘marginally able’ to defend itself.
How does President Obama explain his intentions?
After the jump, see insights reported in the Washington Times article, including excerpts from Obama’s message to Congress:
no bueno !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We should cut politicians pay and retirement!!! How can this idiot do this to our military!!!!
yup
Grrrrrrr
Idiot
This man is on a lavish vacation in Kenya costing the taxpayers upward of 7 million and he has the nerve to cut military retirement retirement 20 percent. The waste in Washington is rampant and people are do sick of it. They waste and they flourish, we pay and continue to suffer.
The honor of getting to serve is priceless.
How about take it away all together!
Vickey that is the best ? of this year.Why is he still in office,He needed to be impeached the first time he was elected.
There should NEVER BE a cut to military pay unless there is an across-the-board cut to every government employee
