Obama's Steep Military Cuts to Pay for New Cars, Stereos for Illegal Aliens

The latest attack on our military from Obama and the Democrats is absolutely sickening.

Obama is proposing a 1-percent across-the-board cut for all US military pay. He also wants to slash military benefits for medical care and to increase costs for families through a proposal to raise prices at military commissaries. What is especially monstrous about these cuts is that Obama is increasing benefits for illegal aliens. The ones who are fraudulently collecting Social Security received a 1.5-percent increase in 2014! We need to swamp Congress with FaxGrams immediately and tell them to reject Obama's military cuts!  This outrageous theft from our military has to stop! Charles Benninghoff, Founder

Obama's cuts would also completely eliminate renter's insurance for military families and reduce their housing allowances. To see just how cold-hearted and unthinking Obama and the Democrats are to be proposing military cuts right now, we decided to compare the life of José, an illegal alien drug runner, with the life of John, a decorated combat veteran.  While these two names are fictional, the events recited actually happen, regrettably, day-after-day:

The Life of José Upon successfully navigating our porous southern border with 35 pounds of methamphetamine strapped to his body with duct tape, José makes his way to your city. José is immediately granted a driver's license, even though he flunked the test. This license allows him to sign up for an Individual Taxpayer ID Number (ITIN) and file for tax refunds. José applies for and receives a low-skilled job, for which he is paid cash under-the-table. This deprives one local American of an available job. José will park on this job for years. José applies for and receives housing assistance, energy assistance, food stamps, WIC, Medicare prescription drugs, unemployment and other benefits, because he has a driver's license and no official "job" as far as government agencies are concerned. Even though José is a childless 23-year-old, at the end of the year he applies for Child Tax Credits for his 10 nieces and nephews in Mexico. He receives a $10,000 refund from the federal government. José is eligible for more than $50,000 in benefits from the American taxpayer each year, which allows him to buy a new sports car so he can blast your eardrums out on the street with his favorite mariachi rap music. The Life of John John is a decorated combat vet who served two tours of duty in Iraq and two in Afghanistan with his unit.   He was fired from his job after 15 years of service because he once whispered, in a private conversation, that he believes in traditional marriage between one man and one woman. While trying to adjust to civilian life, John is declared 'mentally incompetent' by one of Obama's VA case workers, which allows the federal government to seize all John's privately-owned firearms. John is unable to find a job in the disastrous Obama economy. Even the low-skilled jobs are taken by the hordes of illegal aliens brought here by Obama's policies (see José). John ends up homeless. His wife of 24 years divorces him and obtains custody over their three children. When a social worker manages to track him down on the park bench where he now sleeps, John is informed that his benefits are being cut even further by Obama and the Democrats. Now homeless, unemployed, living in poverty without family support, not eligible for hospital care since Obamacare has been enacted, John is considering ending it all, ending the tragedy that has become his life. John prays daily for a solution to this mess his life has become.

What you don't hear on the nightly news is the fact that 22 veterans are committing suicide every single day in America -- more than 8,000 per year -- because the government and country that they fought and bled for is abandoning them. Please don't let Obama spit on our military members like this! Click here to send a message to as many Senators and Representatives as you can RIGHT NOW and tell them to reject Obama's outrageous military cuts! Obama is kicking military members and veterans to the curb once again while handing sacks of cash to every illegal alien that steals his or her way into the country. How is it possible that we treat our veterans this way in America?

This is a massive-scale theft from the American taxpayers and a direct violation of hundreds of commands in Scripture to take care of our own poor and needy. Psalm 82:3 for example says, "Defend the poor and fatherless; do justice to the afflicted and needy." Obama is paying off the illegal aliens and doing it by cutting pay and benefits for the military and veterans.  This has to stop! Send your FaxGrams to Congress today and demand that they vote down Obama's military cuts!

Sen. Kelly Ayotte (R-NH) summed this problem up brilliantly. She pointed out that Congress could balance their checkbook, pay our military and veterans and even extend unemployment benefits, if they would just cut off the spigot of public money that's going to illegal aliens. We have to pound Congress with FaxGrams to get this message across to them! Click here to send your FaxGrams today. And then forward this message to everyone you know, or send them this link: HTTPS://PrayFor.US/Stand-Up-For-The-US-Military/ Another way that you can help is by contacting your Senators and Representative at 202-224-3121. Tell them to reject Obama's military pay cuts!

STAND FIRM ON DEBT LIMIT

A very interesting post from www.DickMorris.com about the debt limit. This follows this post about items Tim Pawlenty which he needs to answer if he wants to rally the conservatives to him. This follows this post about the House GOP's communication problem and this article about  the recent news about ending the ban on offshore drilling which would encourage American energy independence This is a key issue to prevent money from going to hostile countries such as Iran  and Venezuela.

STAND FIRM ON DEBT LIMIT
By Dick Morris

We all wish Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) the best of success in his talks with the Senate and the White House and hope that he is able to negotiate a deal for major spending cuts in return for a debt-limit increase. The concept of a one-for-one ratio between debt-limit increase and spending cuts is particularly attractive, provided that the spending cuts are not overly back-ended.




But we must be alive to the possibility that the talks will not prove fruitful or that the Speaker will have to come back to the House with only half a loaf.





In that event, House Republicans need to fortify their position — in advance — so that they are able to battle against the White House even at the price of a government shutdown. To prepare this position, Republicans should pass legislation assuring that government funds continue to flow in two critical areas despite the failure to raise the debt limit:



1. The House should pass a conditional increase in the debt limit of $200 billion, to be used only in the event that the secretary of the Treasury certifies:



a. That all of the borrowed funds would be used to repay creditors and lenders



b. That there is no other source of funds to meet these needs and avoid default on our obligations.



2. The House should prioritize the expenditure of tax revenues in the event the debt limit is not raised so that:



a. Military personnel will continue to be paid



b. Social Security checks will continue to be sent out.



By taking a default, military pay and Social Security off the table, the Republicans will put themselves in a position to sustain and win a battle over the debt limit.



Obviously, the Senate will refuse to pass this legislation. But its passage by the House will make it clear that the Republicans do not want their actions to cause default or any interruption in military pay and Social ?Security payments.



The Republican members of the House should sign a memorandum indicating their support for this prophylactic legislation to fortify our position in the event of an inadequate outcome to the budget/debt-limit negotiations.



Unless the House Republicans pass this one-house bill, they will never be able to prevail in the propaganda war with the Democrats, which would follow the collapse of budget negotiations. And, unless they prepare their ground in advance by passing such a bill, the fiscal conservatives will have no alternative but to accept whatever the leadership negotiates. Just as they wouldn’t challenge the Speaker’s continuing resolution deal because of their fear that soldiers would not be paid, so now, fear of default will weaken their courage.



House freshman Republicans must realize that if they back down and accept a bad deal on the debt limit, they will never recover their credibility with their constituents. The Tea Party types will not be happy with half a loaf, and freshmen run a serious risk of primary fights if they try to sell a watered-down compromise.



On the other hand, passage of this one-house bill would strengthen Speaker Boehner’s hand in budget talks with President Obama and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.). It will a signal to the administration that the House will not be stampeded by fear of default and that only serious cuts in spending will be acceptable in return for a debt-limit increase.



The American people do not want the debt limit increased. They understand the futility of borrowing more and more and continuing big-spending ways. If the administration chooses to battle over this turf, there can be no better fight than this one. The people are with us.
