Are you effin’ serious? Administration forbids Marines from being armed while defending our embassy in Egypt?
U.S. Marines defending the American embassy in Egypt were not permitted by the State Department to carry live ammunition, limiting their ability to respond to attacks like those this week on the U.S. consulate in Cairo.
Ambassador to Egypt Anne Patterson “did not permit US Marine guards to carry live ammunition,” according to multiple reports on U.S. Marine Corps blog spotted by Nightwatch. “She neutralized any US military capability that was dedicated to preserve her life and protect the US Embassy.”
Well, I’m sure this whole “unarmed Marines” thingy is just a one-time thing, an aberration, an anomaly. Or not.
Could these b#stards in the Obamanation be any sicker or dumber?
Democrats honor vets at their convention…RUSSIAN vets
But hey, they “support the troops”, right? From the Navy Times:
On the last night of the Democratic National Convention, a retired Navy four-star took the stage to pay tribute to veterans. Behind him, on a giant screen, the image of four hulking warships reinforced his patriotic message.
But there was a big mistake in the stirring backdrop: those are Russian warships.
While retired Adm. John Nathman, a former commander of Fleet Forces Command, honored vets as America’s best, the ships from the Russian Federation Navy were arrayed like sentinels on the big screen above.
These were the very Soviet-era combatants that Nathman and Cold Warriors like him had once squared off against.
“The ships are definitely Russian,” said noted naval author Norman Polmar after reviewing hi-resolution photos from the event. “There’s no question of that in my mind.”
If you have not yet done so, feel free to go ahead and question their patriotism.
Quote of the day, “Obama thinks soldiers are dying for him” edition
This is so sickening on so many levels. Dude, they’re fighting on behalf all Americans, regardless of from which of the 57 states they hail. They are not risking life and limb for you or your campaign specifically, you pompous narcissistic jackwagon!
Obama to troops: We’re cutting your health care benefits, but leaving unionized defense workers’ health care benefits alone
But hey, the left “supports the troops”, right? Shameful details:
The Obama administration’s proposed defense budget calls for military families and retirees to pay sharply more for their healthcare, while leaving unionized civilian defense workers’ benefits untouched. The proposal is causing a major rift within the Pentagon, according to U.S. officials. Several congressional aides suggested the move is designed to increase the enrollment in Obamacare’s state-run insurance exchanges.
The disparity in treatment between civilian and uniformed personnel is causing a backlash within the military that could undermine recruitment and retention.
Then why do it? Well…
Administration officials told Congress that one goal of the increased fees is to force military retirees to reduce their involvement in Tricare and eventually opt out of the program in favor of alternatives established by the 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, aka Obamacare.
“When they talked to us, they did mention the option of healthcare exchanges under Obamacare. So it’s in their mind,” said a congressional aide involved in the issue.
You mean the same ObamaCare that FOB’s (Friends of Obama) are getting waivers for? Not good enough for unions and pet donors, but force it upon our soldiers and retired soldiers?
Come on, America…PLEASE get this b#stard out of our House!
Government-run hospital may have infected nearly 2,000 veterans with life-threatening diseases
This is outrageous, scary, and tragic. From CNN:
A Missouri VA hospital is under fire because it may have exposed more than 1,800 veterans to life-threatening diseases such as hepatitis and HIV.
John Cochran VA Medical Center in St. Louis has recently mailed letters to 1,812 veterans telling them they could contract hepatitis B, hepatitis C and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) after visiting the medical center for dental work, said Rep. Russ Carnahan.
Carnahan said Tuesday he is calling for a investigation into the issue and has sent a letter to President Obama about it.
“This is absolutely unacceptable,” said Carnahan, a Democrat from Missouri. “No veteran who has served and risked their life for this great nation should have to worry about their personal safety when receiving much needed healthcare services from a Veterans Administration hospital.”
Hey, I’ve got an awesome idea! How about we let the feds run our medical care?
Quote of the day, “Obama laments American military’s greatness” edition
Gimme a friggin’ break. No mas, Barry, no mas. Observe:
Whether we like it or not, we remain a dominant military superpower.
Um…I “like it”, and normal America does, too. We’re kinda funny that way.
But hey, where would you get the crazy idea that the guy is an anti-American leftard or anything? Actually, Dick Morris happens to have come to the same conclusion, too:
Barack Obama might be, might be the first anti-American President we’ve ever had.
Ya think?
