He always sticks it to the military and the elderly, when they reduce spending money.
The first and most important duty of the federal government, according to the Constitution, is to defend the nation from all enemies, both foreign and domestic. Naturally, that is the first thing the Leftist enemies of freedom find to cut, as they already have done in the sequester. Their most important duty is to get re-elected by giving out taxpayer-funded freebies to their voting base.
don’t spit on Superman’s cape.........
don’t bite the hand that protects you
And there will be no interruption to her regular deliveries of truffles, Kobe steaks and lobster.
Makes one proud to be an American Obamican, doesn't it?
/s
It's not like the government stops receiving revenue if the debt ceiling isn't raised...
Bills will still be paid...
Military pay should be the LAST item not paid...
Obama said raising the debt ceiling will not increase spending by a single cent.
At least this ONE sentence isn’t a lie. It will raise it by trillions of cents.
Wow Obama must really be panicked!
The bill does fund the military. It delays only one item, and that is ObamaCare. ObamaCare is broken, causing economic chaos, and absolutely unable to be paid for.
It is an expense beyond our ability to pay. Therefore, we shouldn’t pay it. It should be set aside for future payment, when the nation can actually afford it. (never)
So, if the Senate and the President choose NOT FUND THE GOVERNMENT which this bill does, then that is on them.
I am really getting sick of dear leaders Sierra Bravo as he goes after the former best military force on the planet. Lost 20% of my pay due to the sequester this summer and now I get to loss my retirement for 25 years of service in uniform protecting these bastards so they could subvert everything I believe in.
Meanwhile I watched the Wing were I work lose its ability to project airpower anywhere in the world when the aircrews lost their combat readiness. There are still trying to get back up to speed when cleared to fly back in August. This jack wagon couldnt lead a group of men to a whore house with $500,000,000 in his pocket (thanks to the printing presses of helicopter Ben).
Last time Obama, that he cannot guarantee that Social Security checks will go out as as planned .Now he wants to hold the military pay hostage..
Here we go again. nobama must assume the average American’s memory is about a week long. He was whining about the same thing last year over the debt ceiling.
“Women and children and small dogs will be hurt the most. Warren Buffet will be forced to eat ground beef instead of Wagyu. This is a crisis of historical proportions.”
Congress came to an agreement on CR. They passed a bill funding the government. Obama is the one shutting down the government. You'd never know that from his be-sprinkled shills in the media.
Military should say: no pay, no play.
The parasite class, who pay nothing are never cut?
Our military, who sometimes make the ultimate payment for freedom, are first to pay?
If the Government is shut down, then we obviously can’t pay the Secret Service, or the White House Staff, and they will all be sent home.
Air Force One ? Marine One ? Grounded. The Official Presidential Limo: parked, Zero can rent a car from his personal funds. . .
This is just so much more lies and BS.
In the 90’s the government “shut down” for 21 days. My father was a civil service employee back then. My grandmother and several aunts were on social security.
NOTHING HAPPENED. NONE of the social security was delayed. ONE of Dad’s checks was slow. ALL back payments were made very quickly. I called Dad to ask if he needed some bridge money and he appreciated the offer but laughed.
The Corps power plants kept running, the locks kept going, the dam kept controlling flood water... NOTHING HAPPENED.
If anything happens this time it is because the pencil necked geek, queer bastard obama wants it to happen.
ObamaCare is the end game. If it gets fully implimented then conservatism is dead as a political force in our country. Pelosi was willing to let dozens of democrats in the House lose their seats to get it passed. Obama will sacrifice whatever he has to for it to get implimented.
We are not a third world banana republic. Our military will not revolt. And Obama knows it.
This military member would be proud to get his pay check days or even weeks late if it got rid of Obamadoesn’tcare.
