Active duty and retired military are about to take a big cut to their healthcare benefits, pretty fucked up seeing as he's still trying to start a war in Syria. Time to impeach this ungrateful fuckhead..

After doing a google search of the above topic, there hasn't been any legit news on it since January/February. What's changed since then? Has it actually happened?

Yes it's Obama's fault, and nothing to do with the fiscal cliff. I mean its not like there anyone else in our government that need to approve what the president says before it can take effect.

The president holds a third of the power in Washington dude. If something like this is happening, it's on his watch and therefore his fault. Just FYI (I don't care about this issue, I just wanted you to know that your argument sucks.)

It's funny to see some of the things people will say just to keep riding on the "Lets talk shit about everything the current President does" bandwagon.

Get a hobby.

who cares, servicemen and war vets milk the system more than anyone.

i see that shit every day. i work in health care. these people come to you looking for massage therapy and yoga classes and physical therapy and all that shit because they pulled a back muscle on a parachuting drill 3 years ago and swear it's affecting their mental health and physical wellbeing.

meanwhile they're still playing contact sports 3 times a week and sitting in a desk chair with horrible posture while refusing to stretch or strengthen problem areas. but they CLAIMMMMM it's all from the accident and nobody asks questions.

it's fucking pathetic.

he's cutting their benefits, not removing them.

Basically yes, if your going to blame the problems of our country on one guy you are wrong in doing so. There's a reason three people in this thread, already told you how retarded you are for thinking that.

Fuck you. I would much rather give veterans more benefits even if they are "working" the system. There american hero's and protect us and allow us the freedom of this great country.

You want to talk about budget cuts? How about we cut fucking foreign aid to all of these piece of crap 3rd world countries. Or better yet, why don't we cut government handouts that Obama and his administration love to give out in order to keep his ratings and support up.

So please explain to me why Unionized civilian defense workers benefits remain uncut? These people are hero's they have fought for our country and this is how we repay them. You know what, we might as well just remove PTSD from the DSM again while we are at it...

I'm not saying we should blame ONE guy when the government fucks up. But when they do something I don't agree with it only makes sense that the first guy I get pissed at is the president. He is running the damn thing after all!

Because our do nothing president is equally at fault, the budget cuts were proposed by the Obama administration after all.

And you still gave no reason to why they are not proposing cuts on civilian defense workers.

He does influence a lot of the things happening in North America and singlehandedly destroy the planet. He's worth talking about.

Dude, they're called BENEFITS for a reason... they don't really need them.


But I guess that overshadows the fact that he passed through legislation that will allow millions of uninsured Americans to afford some sort of healthcare.

Yeah he sucks.

I really love conservotards. If I'm bored, I can just steer towards one of these threads and see how nice my life is.
The fact that many right wing idiots blame anything and everything on President Obama. That being said, those of you who can actually reason are generally intelligent and enjoyable human beings.

I am not Murican and have no idea what s going on in this thread.

All i know is the people that bitch about their government in economically developed democratic first world countries, need to just stop and take a look at all the people that live under dictatorships or in widespread poverty and think themselves very very very very lucky.
