Any time the republicans do anything, “Veterans Hardest Hit” is going to be the mantra of the left/media. This tactic has worked for every other voting block the democrats have gone after and it will probably work here as well.

And really now! Why should the cost-of-living adjustment used to increase military pensions factor in over weighted “housing costs”? Or do you think military retirees buy new houses each and every year?
Obama’s trolls want to make Conservatives look just as selfish and grasping as “Progressives” are.
Let’s be smart enough to NOT play the role they’re trying to assign to us....

What Ryan is doing IS hitting the military hardest. THe leftists in the media don’t care how it’s spun.
