Typical commies. Loading their freeloaders on the backs of the veterans.

What a shame. Cutting vets benefits is akin to messing with mother nature.
Ass biting comes to mind.

Which quislings besides McCain and Linda aided the dems in their efforts to crap on the military?

Use it leading up to November, to beat them over the head with.

Gee, maybe they shouldn’t have voted for the cuts in the first place.

Lousy Dems...We need the House and the Senate and the Presidency to get us back on track.

It’s time for retired flag officers to get off the golf course and take leave from their cushy defense consulting jobs and stand up for the troops.

It's OK for them to cut money to disabled vets ... so long as they
use the dough for a good purpose ... like welfare payments to illegals!

Then perhaps twelve Republicans shouldn’t have voted for the cloture that allowed this latest Republican capitulation to reach the Senate floor. If the Republican caucus holds firm (yes, yes, I know ...) then there’s no vote.
I expect Democrats to betray our troops and retired veterans. I expect better from Republicans.
(Yes, yes, I know ...)

Why is it so easy to cut military benefits, but not social security? What’s the difference? One might think we would hear the same squealing, but the GOP just hasn’t figured out how to whine very well.

Isn’t this Congress just fantastic? they treat American’s so wonderful, especially those who put their lives on the line to keep this Nation safe...
and our great leader heads off to a 17day 5+Million dollar vacation, with not a care in the world...I often wonder how his two daughters feel, do they even know how despised their father has become?? well one day they will and one day we will all learn who BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA really is..

Thanks for the ping, JJ!
I just heard that @$$hat Schumer saying that civilian Federal employees had been cut and that military retirees now needed to be cut likewise.
I say Bravo Sierra! Civil servants are not expected to go into harm's way.

We have the house, although you cannot tell by results. Having everything does zero good if the current crop of “leaders” stays in place.
