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 much longer do we have to suffer through him? And I used to think Carter was the worst!
Cut Obama’s pay to give to Vets etc….He is only destroying our country and gets paid for it.
Trump is coming–hurry hurry
Our military deserve every cent and more of what they were getting what is wrong with our government that is so wrong
That is a slap in the face to every Vet, he needs to just go away!
This is for all you idiots that voted for him….
how about a pay cut to our so called elected officials, they seam to vote them selves a raise all the time, then we can pay the military the same or more of what they ere getting
I would support a 75% reduction in his pay as well as Congress. The only reason America has held on as long as it has is because of the sacrifice of our men and women who have sacrificed their lives for our freedoms. That certainly leaves the president and congress in 2nd or 3rd place behind the Military.
The audacity…. he has been supplying our enemies with our tax dollars and military equipment. He gave Egyptian President Morsi before Morsi was removed from power… 2 billion in American Tax dollars, 200 American Tankers, and 20 American F-16 fighter jets and you cut the pay of those protecting the country? You are dismantling our country our military, and discouraging Americans from joining the service so you can put your people into the positions to turn on the American people!
USA-$#%&!@* state & must be destroyed
