WASHINGTON -- In a strongly worded message to Congress outlining its priorities for a military spending bill, the Obama administration today said it disapproved of including money for pensions for 26 elderly members of the World War II-era Alaska Territorial Guard.
The Guardsmen are among those assigned to protect Alaska from the Japanese during World War II.

The list, ping
Of course Obama has no love for our Vets and especially no love for any vets from Alaska
Bump
Follows along administration “Obamacare” to kill the elderly.
Obama is scum - must be brought down - and soon .
The sooner the better. I don’t know if we can make it to 2012 the way he is going
Three strikes against them: vets, from Alaska, elderly.
To paraphrase Kanye West: “0bama hates old people!”
You nailed it!!!
But we can give money to Qaddafi’s daughters charities among other wasted garbage organizations Barry and Congress have given taxpayer money away to........ =.=
Can’t happen soon enough.
As much as I hate to say it I think we need the military to remove this a**clown physically from our house and the office.
They did a great job removing that nutcase in Honduras, a move Zero opposed, I think it’s time for the same here. Before he turns this country into a banana republic.
a “strongly worded message” - to prohibit support for 26 WWII vets. This is scummy and shameful.
As$hole. He can give Billions to his Islamic brothers, but not a cent for those that were willing to protect us from our enemies.
“An estimated 300 members are still living from the original 6,600-member unit formed in 1942 to protect Alaska, then a territory, from attack. The 26 men have enough other military service to reach the 20-year minimum for retirement pay but would lose it if the Territorial Guard service doesn’t count.”
These are native Alaskans. Sorta like the Navajo Code Talkers. These 26 gentlemen defended and prevented the Japanese from advancing up the Aleutians.
Birth certificate or no, Obama is un-American.
Just transfer the $$$ from the Libya projects to the vets. Don’t say we can’t afford it.
Un-f’n-believable
Take it out of the stimulus money, Zero. You know, the money that Joe Biden is out there pissing away.
If they were from Hawaii, the question would be: how soon can we have the photo op?
This is a slap in the face to Alaskans.
Time for Sarah to author a Facebook message showing what a small man Zero really is.
