I was appalled when I read about the $7 billion for solar energy. and have been appalled by the Navy being forced to buy biofuel at around $40 per gallon. Decisions like those get imposed by the appointed CIVILAN POLITICAL leadership.

Exactly. I am appalled by that decision as well, but we know where it is coming from. I am also appalled at the decision to give up to 10 days of "free" leave to homosexuals in the military to go off and get married so that they can collect "spousal benefits."

So, he pays for these horrible decisions? The Marine with a wife and family who has been deployed 5 times in 7 years, and is shortchanged on medical care because Democrat political appointees want to waste precious DoD dollars on bio fuel and solar energy? Do we now desert the military, because there is bad political leadership in Washington?

If we use that "logic", then no senior citizen in this nation should continue to receive a Cost of Living increase, because bad political leadership by the Democrats has allowed the SS general fund to now pay for double the number of SS Disability claimants that it had just a few years ago.

I could turn to any government agency or program and make a similar claim.

The military is under assault: fiscally, morally, and politically.

This fight is where we separate the wheat from the chaff, the men from the boys.

This is all part of the on-going program to destroy the U. S. military.
