Obama and his MarxoFascists are making sure that we can be conquered by Paraguay.
It’s called the ‘redistribution of strength’.
His Heinous intends for the US of A to end up at the bottom of the nations by the time he’s finished.
Put another way - Obama is not going to rest until we are ashes under the feet of the rest of the world.
Meanwhile support for illegals and welfare continues unabated.
Makes sense. Under the Obamabastard we are steadily losing anything worth fighting to protect - our rights, our families and our possessions.
Why do we need a military anyway?
Since WWII we’ve made it a policy to be able to fight a two-front war. Obama is changing that so we’re not even able to fight a one-front one.
And the idiots like to discuss force multipliers.
As if it doesn’t work the other way. Congrats, you have a ship that takes the place of 4 others. So when the enemy sinks 1 it’s like wiping out 5 ships.
The whole point of better tech and weapons is so we can have overwhelming superiority easier. It’s not a damn challenge to see how much DC can cut.
Isn’t it very odd that you’re not reading about such slashing cuts to other agencies like, Education, Labor, etc. DoD, no problem.
In World War II the United States had 20 Armored divisions, 2 Cavalry divisions, about 92 Infantry divisions and six Marine divisions, not to mention separate brigades, regiments and other assorted units. Three brigades normally make up one division. Yes, we’ve declined that far. At its peak, the Army (including the Air Forces) totaled 8,267,958 and the Navy 3,380,817 while the Marine Corps had 474,680
and the Coast Guard (part of the Navy in wartime) encompassed 85,783 personnel.
How can this be happening with all the political support we get from libertarians?
Just kidding.
Obama is living in Bizarro World. Here he is threatening Russia in Crimera on the one hand, and cutting brigades on the other hand. We need to be staffing more divisions and corps at this point in time. A few boutique brigades with TG’s and gays will be no match against the Ruskies.
Only once in our history have we needed a militia more.
And that one precariously.
Air Force is saddled with worn out equipment. Same with Army and Marines.
Navy doing OK from an aging equipment measure, but the number are far, far too low.
Still they cut.
Any General Officer who supports this nonsense should be cached.
And the congressmen who vote for it should be tried in a court of the people for the highest charge anyone can come up with.
Followed by the most severe punishment legally allowed.
At a time when Russia and China are building up their armies, we are reducing ours.
And Kerry threatens Putin... with a toothpick. Ouch! That will really hurt him! ;)
The Army is cursed with a wicked, traitorous Commander in Chief and his compliant lap dog Sec Def.
Someone forgot to tell CJCS Dempsey about cutting the Army’s already anemic combat strength in half. He just said we’re ready to intervene militarily in the Ukraine.
