The left supports the troops just as much as they support the 2A. Not a single bit.

When was the last time welfare payments were sought because of “widespread fraud and mismanagement”?

That’s disgusting. Again, the war on the military.

There's fraud and then there's incompetence.All of us who've served in the Armed Forces know that “SNAFU” is a way of life in the military.If deliberate fraud was committed then steps should obviously be taken against those involved.Incompetence or errors are an entirely different story.

Obama’s Pentagon going after common soldiers. They did what they agreed to do. Obama is going after them and bankrupting them for doing it.

Elections have consequences.

Sounds like a breach of contract to me.

This makes my blood boil!
Panty-waste left will bend over backwards hauling in supposed refugees, give free everything to illegal immigrants, and screw over the soldiers.
What a crock!

Why not take the money from the fraudulent bonuses paid to VA officials?

If some government worker signed a contract then the military member should NOT be held accountable. The government has the responsibility to ensure contracts are proper drafted.

I didn’t see a single reference to any of them contacting their congressmen. I know it’s been going on a long time but their first step should have been to Congress...there are some representatives who will go to the wall for constituents who seek their help. There are few things in life more stressful than getting caught up in the “legal” system. ODD how the government chooses to apply the law, isn’t it?

I heard a snippet of Hillary at a rally yesterday (?) and she referred to Trump’s statement that he would appoint a special prosecutor to put her in jail. Her response: “We have laws. We have courts.”

That statement is tailor made for Trump’s next rally! Sure could have fooled us, Hillary. I want to see the laws that have been passed and are enforced that state “NOT TO BE APPLIED TO THE CLINTONS.”

It’s California. What do you expect? Wonder if they will demand that the politicians give back their pay?

Two questions.

1. Was there fraud involved in the bonuses?
2. Where the correct procedures followed in awarding the bonuses?

IF the answer is “yes” to 1 or 2, they should be paid back. I have had similar things happen to me in private industry (a bonus paid out when it should not have been). It sucked, and I went into debt to pay it off. But the fact remained that there was a mistake in paying out the bonuses (or fraud, never figured out which), and the company figured it out. Now, I left that firm quickly after that, but after reviewing the documentation with a lawyer I saw that the company was correct. The terms listed (which did change right before the bonuses were paid) meant that I didn’t get one.

If the law and rules are not followed, you don’t get to benefit.

Again, the Obama administration is just plain wrong. They are wrong on every single major initiative.

Lots of stories like this. Recruitment will become more difficult than ever.

And if Hillary is president the war is sure to get even bigger. Of course there will be a draft. And an anti-war movement with draft resistors.

"Right wing" draft resistors.

The socialist criminals are sowing the seeds of thousands of Stauffenbergs.

Maybe they are trying to get the entire military to vote Trump.

Back in ‘84 I left active duty along with my advanced per Diem and travel pay. When I got home I never bothered with the voucher I was supposed to fill out and send back. I bet they probably still want that cash back too.
