The list, ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
Obambi’s already let one of his soldiers go to prison because he won’t produce a birth certificate, so nothing surprises me as to what this illegal alien will do. So, he’ll veto that spending bill to show his absolute contempt for our military.
Anybody surprised? The only thing “essential” to this regime is the horde of civil service employees, basically government apparatchiks, who have taken over our lives. In Obama’s mind, the military exists only to enforce his and their will, but since Americans are so docile, the military hasn’t been required for this purpose and can be shoved off to the side until needed.
What we should really be worried about is what happens if the US “goes Wisconsin” - that is, law enforcement personnel suddenly become enforcers for the public service unions, which essentially are enforcing aparatchik power, and try to do so even when the office-holders in the actual government are not leftwing. They become a power unto themselves.
The 'Rats have done everything they can at every opportunity go keep them from being able to vote. Why should that have any qualms about cutting off their paychecks?
If I were maximum leader Soetero, I’d be careful about upsetting the military. They’re the people that are packing serious fire power and know how to use it.
Our brave military is far too honorable to do this, but what they should do is pack up their gear and just come home. Let Obama and his band of ‘Rats fight the danged wars.
Go ahead, 0bummer. I dare you.
It would be political suicide to do so. Everyone knows a soldier. (Well, outside of places like San Fran Nan's district they do.)
"Now, I admit Im putting a few weasel words in here. Its not because I dont trust Ace or Mike Flynn, its because its hard to believe Democrats any politician could be this stupid. Granted, Obama has made some dumb moves in the last two years, but cutting off paychecks for people fighting wars?! He might as well go on TV and announce hes changed his mind about running in 2012. If you choose to cut off troops salaries for political gain, youre done. Mike Flynn does note that this change from previous policy appears to be part of draft guidelines, i.e. not set in stone. I expect some White House flak will be claiming it was all a big misunderstanding by tomorrow morning."
I don’t think that the military can get paid even if the money was on hand because if the Fed shuts down, that includes OPM who process the military’s pay.
IF they are so NONessential, THEN BRING THEM HOME!!!!!
I bet that pos doesn’t want all those guys and gals here, wondering what has happened to the country they thought they were protecting.
since they’re non-essential, get the planes over to Iraq and Afganistan and get our boys and girls home for the holiday
LES’s for the Army are already being docked at 50% in anticipation of a shutdown
