Obama has been ADAMANT about going through with cuts to our defense, putting soldiers out of work. How many soldiers could be employed for $750,000?

I really believe we have to fire this clown in November.

See, this is where a “reverse earmark” from Congress might be a good thing. Something like “before any American loses his or her military job due to budget cuts, all planned improvements to prisoner accomodations will be canceled.”

$750,000 for treasonous improvements. Just soooo wrong for so many reasons.

A whole 23 sources?

Calling Obama a Communist gets 5,000 sources easily.

Shame.

Solyndra really could’ve used that money to throw a party.

The selling out of America.........pure insanity..........time to impeach.......
At a time when the economy is in the pits, reducing the size of the armed forces, unemployment at 9%, cutting health care for veterans, gas at $5.00 a gallon.......yet we have nothing else to do but buy a soccer field for Al-Qaeda killers. When will America wake up? God help us.

I would agree with this expenditure if the moozlums could only play soccer by kicking korans around.

Why not be a terrorist?
You live in a shithole, have no job, no money, little food..
Be a terrorist, kill some non believers get caught and end up getting better housing then you had, more and better food, medical care which you did not have, and entertainment and activities provided!

A spokeswoman says the improvements cost nearly $750,000.

Wow! The Obama adminstration could probably have 'created' a temporary $25,000 per year job with that much money...
