As I’m sure you know, Sierra Vista is the town outside Fort Huachuca, Arizona.
Yes it is.
And I’m sure the sequestration that is still in place that Obama fought so hard to emplace has no impact either.
*barf*
MEGA *BARF* on O’ and his sequestration
Cut food stamps 10%, those ghetto rats could stand the diet.
The Senate democrats and some RINOs are arguing that enlisted men are making too much money and need to have their pay cut? I know how much our enlisted make, and it is far less than they should be earning. Democrats disgust me, and McCain's RINO brigade is not much better.
My feelings too.
Maybe there won't be a war after next. Ha! I crack myself up sometimes.
We can spend millions on illegals but screw the US Military. What’s wrong with this picture. Several newly elected congress critters are ex- military, maybe they can get involved in stopping this travesty.
Yep. Screw the military and retirees so all of our precious new “visitors” can lead the good life. God forbid we cut any benefits to our welfare folks. Just cut medicare and stuff for seniors who paid into and are still paying taxes and premiums. Lamp posts and ropes, lamp posts and ropes.
Active Duty/Retiree ping.
Perhaps congresscritters might first set a leadership example by opting for the sum of $1.00, in lieu of their post-service congressional compensation packages.
Our junior servicemembers who can least afford housing and medical are being hurt the most by this proposal.
As if other costs don't also increase. They aren't talking about anything except matching what they call core inflation. You can bet that military-industrial program costs are going up by a hell of a lot more than 'core inflation'.
It sounds like they're asking the troops to lose .8%. Here's a deal: EVERONE and EVERYTHING lose .8% and I'll back it.
But I won't back it coming solely on the backs of the troops.
Again and again, I harp back to those many times I was told:
"Yes, Airman/Sergeant AB, please re-enlist! Sure you could get out and make more money, have a stable family life, quit when you wanted, and not be killed in a war! But just think... If you make it to 20 years you can retire and get a pension and FREE health care for life!"
It was like a GEICO commercial--Everybody knew that.
What benefits will retiring Senator Carl "Looking-down his-glasses-at-the-rest-of-us" Levin get?
I read where Clown Prince nobama recently gave african country organizations $7.000,000,000 to electrify africa. Apparently, the money has already been “spent” on planning. Now...wouldn’t $7,000,000,000 have helped this defense compensation situation? But I forgot, the media says that the nobamas love the military and military families. Silly me.
Ahhhh Ft Hoochi Choochi ....great place to E&E back into the CONUS from Mexico when the Rurales are hot on yer trail ...... errr so I’m told.
It’s my alma mater.
MI ?
That’s why many of us refer to him as Senator Karl Lennon.
