OBAMALATERAL DISARMAMENT PING

[Da Coyote]

The 85% also is a good number reflecting the military attitude that the Dork-in-Chief is slime.

But they are professional (look it up, MSM and congresscritters).

They will continue to salute and obey.

For a while.

[Iron Munro]

That’s a suprisingly high number considering all the pregnent females, Affirmative Action promotions, gays swapping HIV viruses, money being wasted on “green” foolishness and other leftist idiocy.

[OldMissileer]

It sounds like we are back to where we were when I joined back in 1975. Nothing but a somewhat hollow force.

OBAMALATERAL DISARMAMENT PING

[bgill]

Huh? Headline says 85% ready but article states 85% not ready.

OBAMALATERAL DISARMAMENT PING

[Chode]

Last sentence of the article:

The question is whether these challenges will be met by a resolute commander in chief or an unwilling disarmer in chief.

I fear that before he's done, many of our fellow Americans will die right here at home in a major, major terrorist event. And nobama will claim, of course, that he wasn't warned about it ahead of time. Bastard.

[CincyRichieRich]

The real issue is the traitors themselves leak these facts. We don’t need snowden we have commiebama.

[Sarajevo]

The Iraq and Afghan wars have taken a toll not only in the human terms of our wounded warriors but also on the weapons and training they need to fight.

That, right there is unadulterated BS. The military has gotten everything they wanted, and many things they don't want, over the past 10 years. The military has spent funds like drunken children with their parents credit card.

Gen. Bob Scales, a retired U.S. Army major general and former commandant of the U.S. Army War College who is now a military analyst for Fox News~ Another G.O. looking for his 15 minutes of fame in civilian life.

I also need to ask: If the Army has been in combat for the past 13 years, how is it that 85% of it's brigades are not combat ready? This guy is a dipwad.

The military is more concerned about green, homosexual, racial diversity or women’s initiatives than fighting and winning a war right now.

Sad, but these massive vacillation are no new phenomena: post WWII, Vietnam, Cold War...

It was all evident what was going to happen the same year he came into office and killed: Zumwald, F22, FCS and cut missile defense. Those decisions flew out of the Oval Office in the first days and the final announcements were made within months to a year there after...

They will cut on the soldiers, all awhile they will pretend to care for him: health care, retirements, GI Bill, pay, housing, Tuition Assistance while on active duty...

I suppose the military will become important again once we need it. Let’s all hope that whatever they face they can deal with even after this era of slow financial bleed, personnel cuts, political purges, apathetic and disconnected political leadership in the Oval Office, and social experimentation among their ranks. These sort of things all combined can break a military very quickly, more so than any war in Iraq ever could which will be the political excuse if they do run into any bumps within the next few years.

And where is the critical, investigative, watch dog media in this?
