First cut benefits for congress and the retired members. Then the labor unions. The last one cut should be the military.

But we know that 0bama hates the military.

[Mygirlsmom]

Yes, it's true. One of the 5 killed in Afghanistan this weekend is from Milwaukee.

Fisher House is providing grants to the families so they can fly to Dover to escort their loved ones home and bury them.

You can donate at www.fisherhouse.org

[Logical me]

America now a communists run empire.

Being an old salt & shellback, I have plenty of adequate profanity for this, I just don't want to find myself banned for life from FR. PPOS isn't worthy of even the vilest and most disgusting words & sentiments.

He realy would serve this country well to go back to his Choom Gang and smoke his sorry a$$ to oblivion.

[VerySadAmerican]

According to Greta.

[Dapper 26]

Veterans screwed by government again......we’re used to it.

“The House funded this last THURSDAY and Reed is letting it set and won’t bring it to a vote”.

Reid is the sorriest excuse of a human being in Washington. Sorrier than his POS pretender in chief “president”.

The crooked SOB was worth about $30,000 when he came to Congress. Through sweetheart deals, kickbacks, and paybacks from the Vegas mob he is now worth somewhere in the neighborhood of 50 million. He’s lower than whale shyt and crookier than a snake.

“Why do democrats hate Veterans?”:

Because most of them are Vietnam draft dodgers that despise anything to do with the military.

[Vendome]

They can’t just kite a check?

[DManA]

Obama decided it was more important to send $450,000,000 to People’s TV than pay veteran’s benefits. It’s all about priorities.

[cherry]

crippled old WW2 vets turned away and yet an illegal alien rally to be allowed in DC....

people who vote rat may say their veterans, but they are not patriots...

that guythatwillnotbenamed is an arrogant piece of camel dung...

[cherry]

the govt is collecting just as much money now as it did a month ago.....I'd like to see a govt shutdown where my taxes are shut down...

we really do live in a totalitarian country...

thinking lately that I don't care much for America anymore....its not my America...

[Gene Eric]

He brought troops home from Iraq don’t ya’ know... /s

[arasina]

Obumma has already suggested that to stop the pain of the shutdown and eliminate these so-called battles over the debt ceiling, he may have to take a new sort of action. I’m pretty sure he’s thinking dictatorial powers and martial law will solve it all and he’ll be worshipped as a demigod for saving America.

[Sequoyah101]

That is different. The bodies are being flown home by the military.

As for the Bereavement Pay the family could use to fly to Dover being withheld that is another matter.

[SisterK]

And WHEN did they say that they are closing down the section 8 housing?
