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:
HOW THATS FAIR … SPONGE ow about a 50% pay cut for Osambo, 40% pay cut for congress and Obama Care for benefits while they serve. Term Limits and retirement only after 20 years of service equal to Military Retirement. Pres can only serve for 8 years so he is not eligable for retirement. N
that’s not good, they don’t get that much as it is.
Not suprising
We the people need to cut 80% of his retirement.
Just pay the taxpayers back for all your expensive vacations that you’ve taken!
gov really supporting our troops,,,,,need more money for welfare and illegal aliens…..what a great gov we have
cut his pay by 95% and let him see what it is live to support a family on nothing. Give money to those who deserve it not those who p$#%&!@* their own benefit package and pay raises.
What is he doing?????
Who ever had this bright idea is one of the STUPIDEST people that ever lived. Congress sits on their A$$ and earns megabucks for doing nothing and our Military puts their life on the line to protect their lazy A$$ and this is the thanks they give them. FIRE them all. Time to start taking names.
Maybe this will upset more vets.
