Obama Cuts Military Benefits To Finance Illegal Aliens




Our communist and chief and his administration are gutting the Military so they can afford to feed, house, and furnish health care to millions of ILLEGAL aliens, in spite of Obama’s repeated claims of how much he admires and respects those in military service.
To show his appreciation, the Obama regime is saying “thank you for your service” by cutting housing allowances and benefits, increasing health care premiums and limiting pay raises.
Medical claims are 2 to 3 years behind while our vets die, or live with one limb or no limbs, they have metal plates in their head, and most will have to live on pain pills for life.   Benefits are being cut or deleted every year even though the government signed a legal contract to provide the benefits.  These men served well and kept their promise.  The government lied, Obama lied.

The justification from the Pentagon takes the form of labor being too big of a piece of the pie to be ignored. Department of Defense spokesperson, Admiral John Kirby said, “Personnel costs reflect some 50 percent of the Pentagon budget and cannot be exempted in the context of the significant cuts the department is facing.   Secretary Hagel has been clear that, while we do not want to, we ultimately must slow the growth of military pay and compensation.”

Hagel is expected to recommend limiting pay raises across the board to one percent while freezing pay at current levels for generals and admirals for one year.  He is also recommending commissary subsidies be severely reduced.

Rather than going after America’s military men and women, perhaps the White House should rethink their open wallet open border policies.  When you are cutting food subsidies for your military with one government hand and doling them to illegal aliens with the other, it might be time to rethink the misguided direction of your administration.

If this is how Obama says thank you, maybe the military needs to come up with a way to properly say “you’re welcome.”   If you have not yet emailed or called your Congressman and Senator about this, please do so TODAY.
