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:
Why cnat the Vets get help just like the illegals? They are the reason we still have freedom.
I hate you obama

Dances a jig at the tune of a BILLION DOLLAR “OLD HOME WEEK!” We paid for! SELF INDULGENT Doesn’t deserve to wear that jacket!
I feel like if a person is still identifying as Republican (or even worse, Tea Partier) at this point in the game, it’s due to a severe deficiency in the way that information is processed. It is a mindset which, for the most part, is utterly devoid of logic, reason, and empathy; one that is marked by extreme hypocrisy, without the capacity for higher levels of cognitive functioning. Entire campaigns have been devoted to indoctrinating the feeble minded among them to not only accept more pollution, lower wages, longer working hours, higher medical bills, lack of security in old age, and for profit education (even though we live in a world built on free and seemingly infinite information), but to actively cheer as they unwittingly watch the destruction of said achievements.
They are the party that talks to imaginary people in empty chairs. They are the party that has created it’s own version of math to make itself feel better. This party calls themselves fiscally responsible while tripling the national debt. They call themselves pro-life while beating the war drum and taking funding away from starving children. They cry “support the troops” while sending thousands of them to their deaths, and dismantling veterans programs.
If humanity does not advance through the next century, it will be because of people like them.
They should cut his a 100/ percent
They have to show up for these events and clap, even though their skins are crawling!!!
Where do you get this hogwash? And why do so many people believe it without doing their own research? Are people really that gullible and lazy? https://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/default/files/omb/legislative/sap/114/saphr2029r_20150428.pdf
