If the brass has had months to prepare and they are now whining about being unprepared, they don’t deserve the leadership positions they occupy.
Fire them all...
Suck it up. Do what’s right. Pay, house, feed the troops and cut out the BS. Start closing down foreign bases that are nothing more than outposts of America...Europe, for starters.
Knock off the crap. We are all in this together, and Zero and 0bamunists MUST own this nightmare...every minute of it and every penny of it.
But the Republicans didn't have the stones to do that. They couldn't bear the thought of the news media blaming them for school children being denied access to the Smithsonian or worse, granny's Social Security check being late. Not with an election coming up the following year. So they voted for Sequestration.......a Faustian bargain that EXEMPTED entitlements from cuts!
Now, the Americans who serve and sacrifice the most for this country have to "suck it up" - to use your words.
I never used to blame the GOP, I gave them credit even when they failed because I knew they were trying to do the right thing. Not this time. They threw Defense on the altar of Entitlements and now won't lift a finger to correct their error.
