by Aaron Cantor The President admitted he was puzzled by the magnitude of opposition to his proposal. + Update. So said David Goldstein a syndicated columnist for the McClatchey Newspapers. The "Anointed One complained "Look it is an all volunteer force and nobody made these guys go to war. They had to have known and accepted the risks. Now they whine about bearing the costs of their choice? It doesn't compute" "I thought these were people who were proud to sacrifice for their country, I wasn,t asking for blood, just money. With the country facing the worst financial crisis in it's history, I'd have thought that the patriotic thing to do would be to try to help reduce the nations deficit. I guess I underestimated the selfishness of some of my fellow Americans". OBAMA Talk about someone ACTING STUPIDLY! your it OBAMA, if you think you will ever get another vote from a veteran, or the family of a veteran, you had better withdraw your head from your anal orifice and think again YOUR HONEYMOON IS DEFINTELY OVER!!! Secretary of Veterans Affairs Eric Shinseki (a retired 4 star general) said; "The plan was a consideration as a way to increase revenue as part of next years budget, but no final decision has been made yet"(way to go general). Joe Violante, legislative director of Disabled American Veterans, signed a letter to Obama along with leaders of several other veterans groups, was quoted as saying; "It is a betrayal of all veterans, my insurance company didn't send me to Vietnam, my government did. The same holds true for the men and women fighting in Iraq, and Afghanistan. This is the governments responsibility. Every time we hire some dummy that has had NO military experience, they start coming up with hair brained schemes to the detriment of our military. If you elites really want to save some money, begin by giving yourselves a 50% cut in pay and benefits (that goes for your staff people too), and while you are at it scrap that bloodsucking retirement system you have set up for yourselves, and start paying into the social security system like the rest of us, and become part of our medical plan, or, you could be real patriots and put on a uniform and go fight a war for your country, and find out what it is like to live on military pay instead of $180 thousand per year for which you only work 93 days a year. You folks keep harping on 47 million people uninsured in this country, which is an out and out fabrication. The real figure is between 5 - 10 million people who could easily be handled with a voucher system or a debit card system that would only cost approximately $25 billion per year, not trillions as you propose. A lot of bad press, including major mockery by comedian Jon Stewart on the Daily Show has led to B Hussein O abandoning this silly assed plan, but keep your eye on this guy he will try to find a way to slip it to us another way jut like the health care reform bill, which is now the health insurance reform bill, it still boils down to the same thing. TORO de CACA, EL TORO POO POO, FERTILIZER Ah yes, a Skunk by any other name still smells like BHO. KILL THE BILL IN IT'S ENTIRETY WAKE UP AMERICA!!! PLEASE PASS THIS ON TO ALL ON YOUR CONTACT LIST ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ >> Here is his response when he backed off from his decision to let the Military pay for their war injuries. ...This only shows the level of love, respect and pride our president feels for our country and our armed forces... Bad press, including major mockery of the plan by comedian Jon Stewart, led to President Obama abandoning his proposal to require veterans carry private health insurance to cover the estimated $540 million annual cost to the federal government of treatment for injuries to military personnel received during their tours on active duty. The President admitted that he was puzzled by the magnitude of the opposition to his proposal. "Look, it's an all volunteer force," Obama complained. "Nobody made these guys go to war. They had to have known and accepted the risks. Now they whine about bearing the costs of their choice? It doesn't compute.." "I thought these were people who were proud to sacrifice for their country, "Obama continued. "I wasn't asking for blood, just money. With the country facing the worst financial crisis in its history, I'd have thought that the patriotic thing to do would be to try to help reduce the nation's deficit. I guess I underestimated the selfishness of some of my fellow Americans." Please pass this on to everyone including every vet and their families whom you know. How in the world did a person with this mind set become our leader? REMEMBER THIS STATEMENT... "Nobody made these guys go to war. They had to have known and accepted the risks. Now they whine about bearing the costs of their choice." If this guy thinks he will ever get another vote from an Active Duty, Reserve, National Guard service member or veteran of a military service he ought to think it over. If you or a family member is or has served their country please pass this to them. Please pass this to everyone. I'm guessing that other than the 20-25 percent hardcore liberals in the
Remind everyone over and over how this man thinks, while he bows to the Saudi Arabian king. |
