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.

If they where official apologists or marxist professors he might respect them.
I don’t necessarily see a problem with your logic. I would remind you that we flipped Congress in 1994 though, and it will happen again.
Obama doesn’t seem to have the smarts to figure out he is digging his own political grave here. He’s going to keep pushing radical top heavy governance to the point that the populace is going to give him the Carter treatment.
Twenty-ten looms large, because the message is going to be loud and clear. I still maintain that even California might surprise some people before it’s all over.
Folks are very angry in the state, and if the right Conservative comes along, they may take it in a landslide.
Not a shock, Obama doesn’t value our military or the elderly, which in his mind, is anyone over the age of 45(according to Ezekial Emmanuel, they are considered useless after that age). These guys have 3 strikes against them, they are elderly, they are in the military, and they are from Alaska. Usually I don’t believe a word out of Globe Magazine, but their front cover has an interesting article about how Obama has a 25 name enemy list, and guess who is in that list, Sarah Palin. So yeah, anything Alaska related Obama wants destroyed
Thats what I had been saying. What matters is his lack of American identity not his birthplace. The money he wastes is 10 million times what the men need.
And who does the prsident think he is? King of America? Let him veto the bill that contains the provision instead of defining what the people must do by pre-emptive fiat.
Obama is losing it. We are definitely over the target.Open the bomb bay doors and let the Obama Junta have it!
I love to see fascists scurrying around looking for cover in the morning.
Billions for ACORN but nothing for 26 old soldiers who served their nation with honor?
Obama just lost hundreds of thousands of votes, I love it when that happens!
But Zelaya was removed by Congress, “using” the military that’s why it wasn’t a coup. The Honduras Congress was acting within their Constituition.
Prayers needed for America Heroes, Alaskan Veterans from WWII denied
pension by Commander in Chief, obama!
Should we ping the +/- 70 years ago list?
You are assuming we will be able to vote in 2010.
Al that has to happen is an “emergency” be declared and all elections are halted.
Remember some people said that W would do that?
They were crack troops also, they were the only ones who could actually operate in Alaska and the Aleutians without major difficulties with the weather.
Al = All
Definately!
If they had been from HI, instead of AK, they might have got soemthing. Maybe they can petition those two liberal senators from AK.
Does obama even know that the Japanese invaded Alaska and killed 1,481 Americans there? The enemy lost 4,350. I guess he doesn’t consider the defenders of Alaska important because it wasn’t one of the 57 states yet.
Hopefully Leo will hit paydirt in HI or Orly/Kreep with Judge Carter. If Leo gets the BC then a massive class action by members of the military should be filed against the usurper. If SOCTUS refuses then based on the evidence from HI or Orly the Islamo-marxist needs to be evicted.
These 26 guys left, Inuit, and Aleut, Alaskans, fought for control of the the Aleutian chain of islands.
With all the frickin bailouts, Obama has finally run out of my money.
People in MN and elsewhere really believe in Obama. You are out of the loop. People like, trust, and admire him. Now that doesn’t mean the people are intelligent and right, but that’s the American people, “that’s the way it is”, as Uncle Walter proclaimed.
