Well, I recently posted an apology thread concerning the uncomplimentary language (not profanity, just rude/borderline racist) where the potus is concerned.

Now, I don't really have anything to say since I can't say it like I want where he's concerned.

Nevermind.

I just want to thank all the dems and liberals out there who, for the past 50 years, have contributed to the collapse of America. When we're looking out from a Soylent Green perspective, I just hope you people realize who is to blame.

The ONLY reason for a federal government is “for the national defense!” If Obama weakens the national defense, then there is no reason to have him or his government. He should be impeached immediately and we should install a government hell-bent on national defense as it’s first operating premise.

The administration seems to be taking the millions typically spent on the Tomahawk program and investing it in an experimental missile program that experts say will not be battle ready for at least 10 years.

Follow the money. I wonder who's getting the $?

No problem, we'll use UAVs to unleash hordes of queers on them.

He didn’t like U.S. using them against his real friends!

Another measure of treason, and an action against his Oath of Office.

Comment I came across:

The Chinese recognize President Obama as one of their own? Every American should read “Three Wild Swans,” a first-hand, three generation account of the Communist take-over of China. It began....with community organizers.

He’ll do this until he has a veto overridden.

Even the Democrats know this is a stupid idea. Even the stupid ones know this is a stupid idea.

Looks like that was the “flexibility” Obama was talking about.

A couple of possibilities come to mind:

1. Something better is under development.

2. The US Military is outsourcing all future weapons development to China.

Obama wasn’t kidding when he told Putin, “Wait till I’m re-elected.”

My husband is Retired SCPO over 65 thus on Tricare Life as he is over 65. So our health care is Medicare/Tricare Life.

New DOD budget changes are going to impact us negatively. And family owned Pharmacies. Me more than my husband, as I am high drug sensitive.

We received a prelim letter last week that MANDATES we either obtain our medicines from the Naval Base or Express Scripts, mail order.

The drugs at the base are very limited. Express Scripts is mail order. But there are problems with it. From sending the wrong medicines, to sending them late, short, and they are tossed up on your porch UNSIGNED FOR. Ripe for theft.

TRICARE LIFE Retired Military over 65 just received this noticed 2 weeks ago, takes effect 4/14/2014, why they sent a prelim with out the drug list is WASTEFUL spending in itself!

PLEASE NOTE THE PALM GREASING IN THE FIRST LINK! THAT IS THE REAL PROBLEM, NOT Retiree’s health care.

All I see is a nightmare. ES cannot be trusted to get the RIGHT manufacture, and not all generics are equal to name brand. While using EX sounds good, there are big problems with it, especially for a drug sensitive persons. Samples should come before a drug is filled to weed out in the least costly fashion those a person will react to.

I did not include the cover letter.

This is a Prelim letter, we don’t even know at this time which drugs are going to be on the list. Waste of money to not send out the full thing. But then again government is good at wasting money.

These are the option we are going to be given in a “new” Pilot program from Tricare Life.

1 Transfer your medication from a retail pharmacy to save , convenient Tricare Home Delivery and pay less out of pocket! A typical cost for a 90 day retail supply is $51 but only $13 for Home Delivery.

2 Ask your doctor about using a low cost generic that is not among the medications included in the Pilot Generics can still be filled at retail for $5

3 Transfer maintenance medications under the Pilot from retail pharmacy to a military pharmacy. Call your local military pharmacy to see if they have you medication
4 Continue to get you selected maintenance medications at a retail and pay 100% of the cost of the medication starting with your third refill.

If you refill your selected maintenance medication’s at a retail pharmacy after March 14, 2014 you’ll get letters from the Tricare Pharmacy contractor Express Scripts, Inc about switching to Home Delivery. Remember, starting with your third fill you will be responsible for 100% of the cost of the medications if you chose to continue to obtain them at a retail pharmacy.

If you have other health insurance with a prescription benefit, you do not fall under the Pilot. There will also be a process to obtain waivers on a case by case basis, due to personal need or hardship, emergency or other special circumstaces-0 such as living in a nursing home. After participating in the Pilot for 1 year you may opt out.

Military Waste and Fraud Continue In the Middle of the Government Shutdown HERE IS YOUR PROBLEM : PALM GREASING
