I’m still wondering what happened to the “War of Necessity”, both in terms of rhetoric and action.

It’s been the goal of the left all along; destroy the military and take the money saved and dump it into social programs.

Barry needs the money to build his promised civilian attack force (Gestapo) that he wants to be as strong and powerful as the military. Keep your powder dry.

Will the thousands of released soldiers be added or subtracted from the number of “jobs created” by the POSOTUS?

Obama cuts military in half

The Origins of the American Military Coup of 2012

As I recall the author (a military officer) predicted a war with Iran in 2012 -- written in 1992 when 1960s Marxist-Alinsky spoiled brats prepared to take over the government with plans to dismantle the military into global-meals-on-wheels service and a "social experiment" lab.

The author described government that became so corrupt and incompetent that for years the military had to do much of the civilian tasks to cover for the nitwits. This left the military so weakened that when it was sent into combat in 2012 it failed.

The military saw no alternative I suppose. I believe at that point they moved to make things right again.

Obamass is now implementing that 1960s Marxist-Alinsky spoiled brats "Bring it all down, man" dream "America." He is an ideological and biological issue of those cretins -- though the teleprompter is now his mentor.

....the administration considers reducing its arsenal of nuclear weapons.

Baraq The Great - his latest in many steps toward TRANSFORMING our Constitutional Republic without a single Constitutional Amendment, and hardly a whimper out of the public, with the exception of a few real patriots who will be nailed to a cross by the state run media. GOAL - NUKE FREE WORLD, led by our current Marxist Pharaoh, Baraq The Great.

Top 10 Reasons Not to Trust Russia

US President Barack Obama said today [05 Apr 2009] he is committed to a nuclear-free world during a major speech in Europe. He said the US was "ready to lead", had a "moral responsibility to act" and stood for the right of everybody to live free of fear in the 21st century.

Any "Gestapo" of Obamanistas going door to door to take weapons away from Americans would be blown straight to hell.

Countless Americans are pissed off as it is because of the destroyed economy, and the specter of a bunch of damn Stalinists invading their neighborhoods might just push them too far.

No, Obozo, our military will not be “leaner” but rather will be starved into ineffectiveness and America will be much more defenseless. Bill Ayres and Bernardine Dohrn may be pleased as punch but pro-American voters won’t be. Treasonous bastard! When Americans return to control of the White House and both houses of Congress, they will have to rebuild the military.

I do not like anything about the sob and voted against him. However, the guy I voted for gave him a backdooor endorsement and did everything to assist his election and not only that, the good people of Arizona expressed their pleasure of what he had done by re-electing him to the Senate for six more years.And last but not least, more people voted for the sob than voted against him and this was one of the things they voted for.

I can still the syphilis faced White punks on television on election night yelling, "Yes we can, yes we did, obama".

That is what the bastards that voted for him voted for, so, other than not liking it, there is not a lot I can do about it.
