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:
I agree !!!
he wants more money for his next vacation
Need to cut his pay
cut oidiots and congresses pay they dont deserve it and no lifetime benrfits
This was a very dirty move by Congress and the President. They should be messing around with military benefits. The benefits need to be getting increased, not decreased. This is unbelievable what this government is doing to the military. It’s a total disgrace how bad it’s starting to get.
a conservative rag blame the president for in everything… that 20 percent pay cut is for those leaving the service prior to their 20-years; I support that, put in a minimum of 20 to get all the benefits…
Hopefully a throat cut
Hang on yall we are trying to help u but as u already the government works so slow
You need 100% pay cut @[296856040436954:274:Obama is the Worst President in US History]
What has America come to. Take away the history of so many. Pretty soon we will be America with no history. No Military.
If they want to run this Country do it for Free that means Senators Congressman Obama and his Administration.
