Obama Admin Announces Military Pay Cuts, Gives $102 Million To Foreign Terror Group
http://constitutionschool.com ^ | april 21, 2013

Despite the organization being linked to Al-Qaeda and after having several pictures surface online of fighters grilling a decapitated human head, the United States pledged to give Syrian opposition forces $123 million in new defense aid – doubling the aid previously pledged by the Obama Administration.

The announcement was made early Sunday morning by Secretary of State, John Kerry, who is meeting in the Turkish capital with opposition leaders.

Dave Frederick, a defense analyst is baffled by the administration’s behavior. “This is a true embarrassment for our country and something the Obama Administration should be very ashamed of. In the same month the Secretary of Defense is screaming ‘we don’t have enough money to pay our troops – we need to cut their pay – the Secretary of State is handing out free money to sickos who grill human heads. What’s especially infuriating is that, according to Kerry, we’re only getting started in giving money to these people. He did say ‘all future aid’ mind you.”

For the same reason he was elected... a combination of ignorant sheeple and corruption.

We’re civilized. We still hope and pray that the political system will work. It’s who we are.

[[Traitor. Why is this guy still in office, it boggles the mind.]]

Because he offered the ‘Gimme’ generation lots of free stuff- They don’t care how dispicable a person is as long as that person gives them stuff (of course they aren’t smart enough to realize that for every dollar he gives them- he takes 10 back in higher taxes and fines- The dumification of America is almost complete)

why are we supporting radicals in Syria?......we can’t afford college for our young people without them going into massive debt, we can’t afford decent health care, we can’t afford to fix our roads....BUT we can afford to send OUR tax money to the stone age neanderthals in Syria?

I believe (could be wrong) that how the budget works even with CR that each department gets a certain amount of money to be spent as they see fit. Obviously the Secretary of Defense is using money from his budget to send to this foreign terror group and taking money that would be used to pay active duty as a raise instead.

My thoughts exactly. Why does congress allow this twit to give our money away to terrorist.

It’s time to get serious and vote these politicians out of office.
