    Default Obama Gutted Our Military Readiness

    Obama Gutted Our Military Readiness

    Barack Obama, who was responsible for the nation’s security, insisted that military spending be included in the “sequester” that automatically cut government spending.
    Testifying before Congress Monday evening, Secretary of Defense Mattis said “the damage has been severe” to our military as a result
    No enemy in the filed has done more to harm to combat readiness of our military than sequestration. We have only sustained our ability to meet American’s commitments abroad because our troops have stoically shouldred a much greater burden.

    Same happened during the Clinton years. He cut our manpower while increasing our OpTempo. Meaning for those who don't know ... he increased our responsibilities and presence abroad while cutting our force.

    I harya! Go back to the peanut farmer, he gutted the armed forces like they was hogs. I made the mistake of joining the A.F. with an open contract, ie., no guarantee I got the job I wanted.

    Because of Carter, they were low on SP's. Ugh.

    Needs of the gov come 1st & all that jazz...as I guess it should be.

    The armed forces should never have funding cuts, bad for security...
