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 Muslim president is doing everything that he can to disrupt our country, we really need to get him not only out of the white house but gets him out of the United States of America, he’s just a terrorist that got in our country and the white house, dear God what were we thinking.
Obama is a scumbag . The military puts there lives on the line every day and this idiot punishes them every chance he gets. Impeach this worthless excuse for a human being. Lets bring in terrorists and spend 5 billion on them . What’s really going on.
Hell no, cut his and congresses pay, quit using our money for Vacations and your friends Isis.
How is an increase a decrease?
The commission’s proposal include decreasing the “multiplier” that the Pentagon uses to calculate traditional retirement pensions from 2.5 to 2.0, lowering the initial value of retirement checks by 20 percent.
Under the new plan, the Defense Department also would contribute up to 6 percent of basic pay into individual troops’ retirement savings accounts. The Pentagon already contributes 1 percent automatically, and the added contribution would go to all troops who serve more than two years, whether or not they chose to separate before 20 years of service.
This is total bull. The President just went around and gave members of the military a raise – the largest he could do without congressional approval, because congress has denied every proposed raise he has requested. Educate yourselves people.
This website is on a list of f**e news and hoax websites. Do not believe anything they post.
If he’s going to do this, then he needs to also re-vamp the retirement pay that goes to ex-spouses when a divorce happens. My husband’s ex-wife gets 49% of his retirement monthly until he dies. She’s been getting paid for the last 13 years. AND – she is remarried to another retired military person. She shouldn’t get anything. SO UNFAIR!!!!!!
He should start with the retirement of all politicians including himself. Douche.
ISIS is the kenyan’s private army he spoke about when he was campaigning…..that;s why he can screw with our military with impunity…..
How about cut your golf. ….. !!!
