With Obama in the White House, more like, “America has a knife in your back.”

Seems they care about vets only when it helps them to advance their socialist agenda.

What’s up with this big push of the Obozo’s with finding jobs for Vets? What is it that they are up to here. It’s certainly NOT because they support the military - hell, they do not even properly salute the flag in public. Either this is purely political pandering during an election year, or they have plans regarding significant cuts in our military. Or, both.

High unemployment among the young is normal for European style socialism. This is the new normal. The 0bamas only care about the troops as useful props for politics. Period.

Prediction: Obama’s affirmative action plan for veterans (if enacted) will have the same effect that similar plans will have for minorities. It will represent veterans as less attractive hires and create suspicion that veterans who succeeded only did so with government help. It will not create a single new job because it will only be used where a company was going to hire SOMEONE anyway, and decided the financial incentive made sense to “take a chance” on a veteran.

“First lady tells vets ‘America has your back’”

Is she referring to gays in the military; or a knife?

I simply cannot understand people in this country who believe that government creates jobs. Government can help or hinder in private sector job creation(mostly hinder in the past 10+ years), but cannot create jobs. For every single government job there is a net decrease in government revenue. The answer to jobs is for government to get out of the way of the private sector.

Let's play Which Statement Does Not Fit With The Other Two?

1. "for the first time in my adult life I am proud of my country because it feels like hope is finally making a comeback."

2. “all this for a ### flag? Or...

3. “…we're … rallying all of America to recognize and honor and support our veterans and military families...”

.

Now that she’s officially proud of her country again, she can start getting those photo ops with the military that she hates so much.

Michelle Obama opened up to Robin Roberts on “Good Morning America” in her first television interview since she became first lady.

MARCH 17, 2009

By choosing Fort Bragg for her first official trip outside the capital last Thursday, Michelle Obama signaled that she will use her position as First Lady to promote one of America’s most deserving causes: our military families.

Plainly the families loved it. Just look at the smiles on those children as she read them “The Cat in the Hat.”

So it was just a little disconcerting the next morning to hear the First Lady explain how she came to this issue:

Michelle Obama - “I think I was like most Americans,” she told ABC News. “Pretty oblivious to the life of military families. Sort of taking it for granted.”

Perhaps Mrs. Obama did take these families for granted. Surely, however, it’s extraordinary to suggest that “most Americans” did the same. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB123725233352050133.html
