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:
This sounds SO much like him! Bet his pay, nor his cronies’ pay, will not be cut! Does Congress not have anything to say about this? But, Congress, too, is at his beck and call….. One big, happy clique in DC….. Did not our Civics studies tell us that there are THREE Branches of the Federal Government! The Legislative (Congress), the Judicial (the Supreme Court), and the Executive (the President)? Seems that all three have mysteriously merged into/under only ONE——the Executive. Does that kinda “hint” of dictatorship? But, “what does it matter”? Sleep peacefully, Amerika…..
Cut his retirement first, that’s not right
We need to cut the presidents pay the congress and the Senate’s. They don’t put their lives on the line.
He hates and is afraid of our military.
