It goes back a lot further than Obama. The changes for the worse started way back in the GHW Bush administration. The so called GOP takeover of Congress in 1994 and their aiding and abetting Clinton that followed didn't help matters either. GW Bush and his Sec's of Defense did their damage as well and corrected absolutely nothing not even with a two house majority. Both parties have become the enemy and people need to wake up to that fact.

Reagan was the last POTUS who understood what our military was for and appointed competent men to manage it properly. By the end of Poppy Bush's term the military was well on it's way into a downward spiral. A little over a year after he left office we had a carrier have a boiler room explosion at Pier 12 NORVA that was so severe it had to be towed Cold Iron to the yards in Portsmouth. That was after it had returned from a deployment that began in August 1993. It had made three previous deployments in three years. Before the August 1993 deployment the ship was in such bad shape it had no radar, only two of six generators operational, and was unable to pump fuel properly. Those kind of issues take a while to get that bad. Three missed or shortened yard period cycles caused it.

Not one defense cut under any POTUS can happen without Congressional approval. Congress is supposed to regulate the military meaning set the rules. Congress tomorrow morning could end the Gay Mafia takeover of the military. They have the Constitutional authority to do so. Instead they are too busy cutting secret deals pandering to K-Street Crooks. That kind of negligence of congressional and presidential duties has been going on since 1989. That is how we got to where we are today.
