    You are grasping at straws, you have no idea what I think, well, except that you are wrong. You are spouting Genine Gerafalo and Keith Olbermann and Racheal Maddow progressive leftist loser talking points.

    Define "progressive leftist". Does that mean "anyone that doesn't like The Big Tyrannical Violent Police and Military State"?

    I thought that "liberals" were supposed to be the ones that liked Nanny States, not conservatives.

    Pretty much limited to, but not exclusively, O'Bama voters.

    I am a real liberal, not a conservative and definately not a progressive leftist. You are correct in the enemy, though you see him far too narrowly, from the Occupy or anarchist mindset.

    Ah yes. So the enemy is the Police and Military State as you mention, yet you hate the fact that I have no respect for..the Police and Military State? Is that what you're saying???

    It is not the police or the military. It is the globalist corporate deep pockets and their ability to buy elections and politicians to do their bidding. The povertization of America and the world is an IMF, world bank, the security state, and UN with the full knowledge and support of presidents including "W" and O'Bama. It is NOT one thing or one entity, or two in the case of your protestation, that has this in mand. You think that the collapse of socialist Europe is by accident? We're next and O'Bama has us on the right path for our collapse.

    What's this about me limiting the enemy to "two entities"? I'm focusing on two right now because that's the topic at hand.

    The post of yours I replied to was childish and not worthy of a lengthy reply.

    Bring something better then Obamas a dumb dumb and I give you the reply it deserves.

    Let's LOOK at the ACTUAL HORRENDOUS INCREASES our military is facing!

    http://www.military.com/benefits/content/tricare/retiree/proposed-tricare-fee-changes.html

    Proposed Standard Tri-Care increase for a single retired military
    2012: Annual Fee: $0, Annual deductible:$150
    2013: Annual Fee: $70, Annual deductible:$160
    2014: Annual Fee: $85, Annual deductible:$200
    2015: Annual Fee: $100, Annual deductible:$230

    So, in the coming year, a retired military person is looking at a TOTAL ANNUAL HEALTH CARE COST of $150!!!!!!!

    ITS THE END OF THE WORLD!

    Never mind that the Republicans have CONSTANTLY proposed much BIGGER cuts in healthcare for military and Democrats have CONSTANTLY STOPPED THEM!

    The original caption was "Obama hates our country and our troops".

    "I, paco, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God."

    No surprise, the first leftwad 'defense' of this skips over the main insult, the denigration of our service men and women:

    "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."

    THIS is what requires justification.

    It makes no sense, its just that Obama hates our military. Yet he wants to take credit for UBL.

    Productive people. They hate them. $150 is a small deal to those that earn their money through work, but try to cut $150 a year from a welfare reciepient and the GOP is trying to kill the poor.

    because THEIR healthcare costs have NOT been stagnant like active duty and tricare repicients.

    satisfied now, or was there really something ELSE that was bothering you?

    They have also not been in the warzones being shot at as much as servicemembers. Nor does their pay stay below poverty when they deploy if they do go.

    There is already a problem with injured service members getting treatment when they get back, how is tacking on more cost to their missery seem like a good deal?
