You beat me to it. Obummer plus Moochelda and her entourage vs proper, decent care for our veterans. Every time Obummer stands up there and spouts his platitudes about the military, it makes me sick. The words sound great, but you know they are meaningless to him .... actions speak louder than words and he screws the military every chance he can get.

I think it was Joe Stalin who said something about “who counts the votes” as having a trump over who votes...

In a related story, the IRS is about to pay out 70 million taxpayer dollars in bonuses to their union thugs. Way to go America!

Obama’s gotta pay for the EBT, section 8, TANF, and Medicaid for all the inner city folk and those who are about to become legalized so they continue to vote for him...

That’s more important to Obama than caring for our wounded soldiers...

Don't forget Moochelle's luxury hotel suite in Ireland that costs $3,300 a night. Worse, her "attendants" took up another 35 rooms in the same hotel.

We are serfs, and she is worse than Imelda Marcos.

Meanwhile, our wounded military heroes suffer, and the people who care of them are taking a 20% cut in pay. The EBT crowd, however, is unaffected by Sequestration as those are EXEMPT from cuts.

The Republicans were stupid and crazy to buy off on all of this. All of them are traitors.
