157 Air Force Majors terminated without retirement benefits
The American Thinker ^ | 11-25-11 | Thamas Lifson

One of the best ways to destroy American military capabilities would be to convince career military personnel -- both officers and enlisted -- that their commitment to service will not be rewarded with the retirement benefits they have earned by their faithful obedience to orders, no matter the personal cost or risks they endure. The Obama administration seems to be ready to destroy the belief that service will be rewarded as faithfully as duty was performed, one step at a time.

The latest step in that direction is the announcement that 157 Air Force majors will be terminated prior to retirement, without the opportunity to complete the 20 full years of service necessary to qualify for retirement pay. Caroline May of the Daily Caller writes:

The Chapman University of Military Law and its associated AMVETS Legal Clinic are blowing the whistle on what they say is an injustice set to be perpetrated on 157 Air Force majors on the last day of November.

"The Obama administration has ordered massive reductions in forces, resulting in many officers who are near retirement being involuntarily separated without retirement or medical benefits," explained institute director...

No - MSN is my internet connection network

They support WebTV, WebTV PLUS, MSNTV, and MSNTV2 internet receivers and also WebTV, Hotmail, and MSN email

MSN used to support ULTIMATE TV units too - I have an ULTIMATE TV wireless keyboard as an emergency backup keyboard

Now if only Bill Gates will give a call to Microsoft and tell them my check is late again.....

Wow is the time off, your post shows 5:43pm and my computer clock showed 5:37pm!

I was thinking of MSNBC on the internet. I guess the check would be for some things you told them you did, that they didn’t know could be done. You said that long ago.

Hope you get something good for dinner - it’s “your day”! Lol

I am sure the Cain threads are predictable

There is no consequence or penalty for making charges

All-Red even said her “client” in Chicago was a registered Republican

In Illinois - where no party is on your voter registration

Sooner or later that garbage is going to have unintended consequences

When that all came out I spent two days reading every thread and watching every show I could catch on TV. I kept notes on Notepad in my computer.

Then I read threads and it was mass confusion and fabrication. They had events out of order, things said out of order, etc, etc. I read all about the ‘no registration’ in Illinois and you are not pre-registered for a party but it said when you voted for a Pub or Dem it ‘could’ be stamped on your voter’s card. She did vote Republican.

I found it horrible for women to be called slimey names when no one knows the real truth. Politico brought out the original story and ‘then’ the women chose to speak out, it was even stated that they didn’t want to but they knew what was coming once Politico exposed the story.

Just like women who are raped, they don’t willingly go public. So I just wait and see what develops.

I can’t recall just how things went when claims were made against Clinton. Were Paula, Gennifer and the others called wh- - -, sl- -, bi- - -, etc? I just don’t recall that.

Obama had black opponents in Illinois disqualified

Then he bought crooked Judges to destroy Ryan

Republicans let carpetbagger Alan Keyes go up for the Senate - with no shot at winning

You changed the subject devolve, lol. All that I wrote was true. Were Paula, Gennifer and the others called wh- - -, sl- -, bi- - -, or were they cheered on because it was against Clinton?

The lefties called them every name in the book

The media was doing the bidding of their DNC masters too

FR has become a battleground

This is not about “vetting”

This is about getting Bob Dole - again

I agree. It should have been “nipped in the bud” as an old friend of ours used to say.
