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:
theres our president for ya, they defend and protect him, and this is the thanks he gives them 2 faced ungrateful hypocrite
How disgusting – of all People to tap into benefits, our Military?! Really Mr. President (a** hole)?! You’re more pathetic than I ever imagined. Why don’t you tap into you and YOUR Administration’s pension to deal with this financial issue? You never cease to disgust me.
Quit sending monley to Iran, Cuba and the terrorists.
No, it was the democrats.
Better be cutting the over paid politicians pay too. They do us more harm than good, sometimes
This is ridiculous. We have money for his multiple vacations, money for illegals, money to give to other countries but not enough for our veterans. Shame on Obama. He has not been commander in chief. That is a joke. He preached change America- you voted for him twice, This is his “change”, Congratulations – you got “change”.
He should also take a 20% pay cut retroactively and resign in shame…
I think that the jerk needs a 100% pay cut him self and a one way ticket out of here , with no pension or any other pay.
Yeah well there are many prominent republicans that voted for this including McCain.
This SUCKS ! He expects them to go off to get maimed and possibly give up their lives with a 20% pay cut ??? How does that help to retain the professionalism of our fighting forces??????
