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:
Obama needs more $ for golf and for his $#%&!@* friends
Let’s not touch our politicians ore welfare tho. Perfectly selected from the Socialist play book. Nice job Sleeper cell!
I think if obama was a real man he would work with out pay since we pay all his bills
Take off that jacket. .it deserves respect not disgrace
Obama is really looking out for our veterans, BS!
we need to cut yours out
I don’t see Obama cutting his pay or his retirement he makes me sick
Do same to all politicians.
This is just another slap in the face to veterans and active duty military members. Who is going to want to be in the military now? I’ll tell you who. “Dream Act” folks. Illegal aliens, people who are desperate and have no other choice. We are ending up just like Rome in her decline. The army had become an army of mercenaries, foreigners from the countries they had defeated. How loyal do you think they were?
Why????
