Do you see ANY cuts on entitlements? Nope.

It's been the leftwing demonRats' strategy for some time now: spend money on everything BUT the military. The treasonous SOBs really do want some other nation(s) to take our place as world leader.

This may very well be our epitaph

A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within.
An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself.
For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men.
He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist.
A murderer is less to fear.The traitor is the plague.

Marcus Tullius Cicero

Things are terribly wrong. It’s as if people in positions to do something have had their families threatened. I now believe that could be true.

Indeed. This is far worse than anything he has done so far in my opinion. I would strongly suggest everyone contact their wimps-—I mean reps and try to get this squashed.

Obama - more treasonous than Clinton or Carter !

One thing about Democrats, they make war much more of a possibility than Republicans and will get many people unnecessarily killed. Happened before WWII. FDR taking the weak position. LBJ took the weak position and was the reason for the Viet Nam debacle and now this moron will cause us to get into a major war in the near future.

We really do need a strong leader, such as Reagan right now. Time to pull this classic out again and start running it. Maybe somebody can re-make it with a twist for this suicidal direction we seem to be heading for....

The man HATES America. He DESPISES everything America has stood for over the past 2 1/2 centuries--individual liberty, freedom, prosperity for those who work for it, self-sufficiency, the Christian work ethic, self-sacrifice, faith in God--EVERYTHING.

I never thought I would say this about another human being and mean it absolutely--especially not an elected representative--but Obama is EVIL. He wants nothing more than to destroy America--to completely deconstruct our society and replace it with some sort of Lenninist/Stalinist dictatorship--or world government patterned along the same lines, probably with Muslim overtones.

Where are the Republicans? Cowering in fear of losing their pensions and their cushy jobs living off the trough of the American tax-payers.

Very clearly, if this is not just a trial balloon intended to evoke some unacceptable political response of violence from the people (thereby allowing him to declare martial law), then it is unilateralism at its most stark.

If this doesn't set a fire under conservatives to pull together and win this election, then we are all doomed. We know we can't rely on the pitiful representatives we have in Congress--they care as little for this nation as Obama does, as exemplified by their collective cowardice.

This effort must be stopped at all costs.

I am very fearful that I will be living in just another sinking Euro-socialist nation in the next few years.

I'm not sure the electorate even cares anymore.

Treason, eh?

So what? What exactly will anyone do about this?

I’ll tell you.

Absolutely nothing.

A single boomer used to carry 300 "devices".

If we want to deter a Nuke attack we need 3,000 deployed at all times.

Period.

Is there really any question as to how evil and destructive King Barak is?

He’s laughing at us. He enjoys destroying our home...revels in it.

Someone please convince me otherwise. I’m looking for any proof that this guy isn’t purposely sinking us.

Yes

If we lose 80% we will also lose the “fear” factor. And when they no longer fear us-——

There is also talk about mothballing the F-22 fleet and never allowing the F-35 to come to full production for the US military. Also, the personnel cuts in the Armed Forces as specified in the 2013 budget are only the beginning. Rumor has it that over 1/2 of enlisted and commissioned personnel will be let go over the next five years.

I agree

As I have said this scares me more than anything else he has done.

(I hope he hasn’t done anything in secret)
