Sgt Bagel, the tongue-tied stooge mascarading as Sec of Defense says military personnel are paid to much, retirees get too much money and the military health plan for active duty and retirees is just too good a deal. Says he'll request budget cuts in all these programs. Let's see how far this gets. Not a member of Congress, in either party, if they value their jobs, will agree to any of these cuts. Just a pipe-dream for this rum-head and his military-hating muslim leader. In the meantime sodomite sensitivity training to be well-funded, and you will attend, or you will be demoted and discharged.

I say cuts to Hagel are needed. The man needs to stay very far away from DC. Maybe Greenland?

The point is to lower morale and eviscerate the cadre.
Isn’t that what the enemies of America would hope for?

I start the cuts with a frontal lobotomy.

Obama said today how much he wanted to help Veterans.
Everything he says has an expiration date.

Why wouldn’t the hate America crowd make this announcement on Veteran’s Day?

Did you know about Hagel wanting to do this?

I’m waiting for him to recommend returning to the pay scales of when there was the draft. or perhaps the 1940 $21.00 a month for privates.

That is a dirty thing to do. Our communist admin of Obama enjoys sticking it to the troops and veterans.

The way we acquire new weapons systems is broken. First, we pay a company to come up with a new concept, then we pay them tens of billions of dollars to develop it over then next 15 years, completely ignoring the fact that it is horribly over budget and years behind schedule.

But don’t touch the same in the Federal civilian workforce. They are unionized!

Everything he says has an expiration date.It also has hidden words that are not apparent until he points them out. For example: "If your plan doesn't change..."

If this is the best the Sec. of Defense can do for the troops, we can get rid of that job and use the money for the troops. In fact, we could clear 80% of the Pentagon offices of the dead wood there, and no one would miss it.
Defending the nation is one of the few duties of the federal government. If we can’t do that for our military, let’s chop 50% from every worthless, unconstitutional agency’s budget. First things first.

Nothing like a corrupt Commie traitor as SecDef. Typical Obama appointment.

Not everything. Somethings, well. They are just flat out lies.

First cut the benefits to the people who have done nothing to defend our nation. Until we have no more civilians receiving food welfare and food stamps, municipal retirees who are retiring with huge benefits, cutting benefits to our military is not just a disgrace, it is treason.
