And what do the tell the poor solder when he is asked to give his life in battle. Sorry we can’t say God because we might offend someone. Ya know — separation of church and state and all.

0bama is methodically insulating himself from any possibility of a military-led coup. He's already seeded the JCS with wimps and the civilian Pentagon staff are, of course, no less obedient to him than DOS and DOJ.

I doubt the sheriff will have any problem finding replacement funding.

I’m of two minds on this, though. The war against religion by this government is repugnant. At the same time, everyone looking to government to fund their program shouldn’t be surprised when the government starts setting the rules. Especially this government under Obama.

And what are all these people going to do when the money runs out?

"Military almost gutted already."

We need to win the white house. And then we need to clear house in the military.

We need to bring back some old generals to help choose men of good character.

Move all the gays out of the leadership and assign them to some remote post on an island somewhere, where they can't do any harm but to each other.

Young Marines: Excellent program; oldest daughter was involved as Private First Class, I think. Did a lot of community service type work, in addition to drilling and learning respect for self and others.

But I don’t understand the federal funding being involved; I seem to recall our local chapter making a big issue out of not accepting gov money.

Obama, his democrats and government run media have done an outstanding job at dividing us in as many pieces as possible.

Everything important about our once great country is being destroyed more with each passing day.

This action was in response to the accounting scandal that involved the DOJ and the Boys and Girls Clubs. This is to distract from the fact that the DOJ funds were not being used for disadvantaged youth, but for large salaries and bonuses for the Progressive creeps running the programs.

My nephew just finished his college degree on a full boat USMC scholarship. SSGT Young Marines. Why doesn’t the gov open up a branch called the Young, Supple Marines? They could tackle sensitivity issues, prank call gay bashers, and learn about the joys of oral sex.
I bet that program would get government funding.

Yeah, just use the word Allah, and not God, and you should be okay.

They might claim they’re just taking their inspiration from US currency.
