IMHO, the Republicans have joined with the DemocRATS in the betrayal of all Americans. It makes me sick.

Some of the biggest betrayers of Vets are people like Jane fonda and John the traitor Kerry. Their ethic has spread to the government where even obama thinks that veterans should pay for their war injuries.

The math doesn’t make sense to me. Am I missing something obvious?

If a 1% cut means $4,000 to the average retiree, that average retiree must be getting $400,000 per year.

I wish people could make a distinction between military veterans and military retirees.

Not all veterans are retirees, but all retirees are veterans.

If you didn’t retire, you won’t get a pension to cut, so vets is the wrong term to use in the title, it should be “Betrayal of America’s Active Duty Service Members and Military Retirees”

Although Vets is a lot shorter... :-)

sorry, but coach is wrong...

if a 4000 a year cut equals 1% annual, well, my math may be wrong, but that means the average retiree gets a pension worth 400,000.00 a year....

me thinks coach needs a little book learnin’...

and this is not the first time the “coach” has been in extreme error..

There seems to be no stopping the Senate vote this week that will place this betrayal of our active duty and veterans into concrete law. several Republicans have already said they will give Harry Reid their vote so he will have the required 60. There was some talk of removing the provision that betrays the military, but it appears it was all bluster and lies. Several news media have reported extensively about the behind the scenes villains who engineered this back stab to military retirement. Paul Ryan is the chief culprit - he insisted on this. How does the GOP sound to everyone now?
