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:
SOB he never served a day….
It all about research, not opinions; just saying is not an option. That is why some.of.you guy have no credibility. Base tour argument on facts and not your culture or lack of…!
He needs to cut his own pay and give them a raise after all they do put their lives on the line. He just sits around and thinks of another right or freedom to take away from the American people while they fight for those rights and freedoms. He is the one that needs cut in pay. It is a disgrace that he lets the enemy keep coming into our country. Next he will be rolling out the red carpet when the enemy gets off the plane.
Then why in the HELL ARE THEY STANDING BEHIND HIM ?
And tea party/GOP has blocked 100% of every jobs bill for veterans. Cleanest pigs in the mudhole does not impress me
This is a 1% cut in COLA, NOT a 20% cut in pension pay. AND this is Paul Ryan’s baby. This was his and Romney’s plan all along (actually, far less than he wanted)

Paul Ryan, a Republican wrote this bill. AND, it is a 1% of COLA, not a 20% cut in pay. Maybe you should find better sources for your information

If this is true, which it wouldn’t surprise me, but if so, he continues to be a disgrace to this nation. Why can’t someone or some group get rid of him. Can he be arrested for tyranny or treason?
Bummer, our service people deserving a raise for protecting your lying mouth. You deserve a 50 percent deduction or more because you are not our leader,your a quack and people with no conscience still believe you and Don,t see how cruel and murderous u are, someday you will wake up and pay for your burning rage against whites and military. May the Good LORD give you what u deserve, Muslim with no virgins.
