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:
Quit sending money to people that would kill us and there would be enough to give retired veterans a20% raise.
You folks appear to have no clue about federal appropriations and spending. Go take a cl$#%&!@* in American government. You must have skipped that in high school.
When I retired from the army you get less than 50% of your base pay, now he wants to cut 20% of that. How can we live on that?
…Obama has now been voted the worst president… possibly ever!
That jerk just keeps the damage he’s doing, climbing. I don’t understand why Congress doesn’t step in and stop him.
lets cut out his wifes trips and his wages along with afew other things
Maybe if he and his worthless family stopped pissing away so many taxpayer dollars he wouldn’t cut veterans benefits.
Raise the veterans …
and cut there to mimwage for 26 hr wk & with no benefits…veterans do more then they do.
“REALLY” When is it going to be his turn for a pay cut, and lets not for get his wifes pay cut as well….
How long will that last? LOL!
Bye Obama.
