Obama has made it perfectly clear he would love to do away with veterans medical benefits and require us to pay for our neded services. I am retired from the Military and am on Tri Care for Life, and I am quite worried that Obama will force a reneg on the medical care I was promised for staying in the military and retiring from it. His loathing and hatred of the military is quite evident and hes even been vocal about it.
I am in that same boat (Tri-Care for life) and it has helped me greatly. This was the CONTRACT signed by the fed with service men and women. If Obama can break this contract, any and all contracts can be broken including the 'contract' that got him elected...
How about we cut off all foreign aid to the multitude of nations that hate our guts and do everything to undermine us at every turn? How about we get the hell out of the UN and the UN out of the USA?? Let some other nation put up with their BS and see how long THAT lasts!!
Sequester the military? How about we sequester Air Farce One which costs about $186,000 PER HOUR to operate? How about we stop using it as Obama Airlines for vacations and junkets for family and friends? How about letting the first kidlets grow up a little before sending them off to exotic foreign Spring Break locations?
How about cutting off Hezbollah, Hamas, PLO and all the other Muslim terrorist allies of this administration? The assistance given to the al Qaida backed Syrian "rebels" (who are about 99.999 percent non Syrians) used to hack off the heads of Catholic priests in Syria??
I could go on, but I think you get the point!!
Well said, Col. I spent this last Saturday, in front of a grocery store, asking for donations to send our Troops, through an Military Outreach Group, I belong to., To think, this man is denying the Troops what they need and deserve is ludicrous. I have never in my life witnessed such immoral greed and avariciousness. When is someone going to put a stop to this giveaway of our National Funds, and direct the money to the one place, it belongs, to our Military!! Every single thing you listed should be defunded, that damn airplane should be grounded. I am tired of paying the Bill for all of this monumental Giveaway Program. We are funding Muslims, and they plan to destroy us. Aiding and abetting the enemy, pure and simple.
I agree 100% we need to remove OB and stop all foreign aid and get out of all these wars we have no business in and bring all the troops home
Why not eliminate the problem that is making it so expensive. If you are losing a lot of blood, there has to be a leach involved.

I tell every young person that I meet to stay out of the US Military and everyone that I meet that is active duty to get out. obummer is using our young men and women to further the mooslime brotherhoods plan to murder anyone that is not a mooslime. We need them for the revolution anyway.
How about if we cut the big o's vacations.
IF WE DON'T GET OUR MILITARY TO STOP THIS TREASON (( WE ARE DONE AS A FREE NATION ++++++ YOUR CHILDREN'S FUTURE IS AT STAKE +++++++ WHAT MORE IS THERE ??????????
