Obama rips injured soldiers

THIS IS OUR CHIEF

COMMENT: THIS HAS GOT TO BE THE MOST OUTRAGEOUS STATEMENT EVER MADE BY A PUBLIC OFFICIAL AND HE IS OUR "COMMANDER IN CHIEF," THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. HERE IS HIS RESPONSE WHEN HE BACKED OFF FROM HIS DECISION TO REQUIRE THE MILITARY PAY FOR THEIR WAR INJURIES.

Bad press, including major mockery of the plan by comedian Jon Stewart, led to President Obama abandoning his proposal to require veterans carry private health insurance to cover the estimated $540 million annual cost to the federal government of treatment for injuries to military personnel received during their tours on active duty. The President admitted that he was puzzled by the magnitude of the opposition to his proposal.

"Look, it's an all volunteer force," Obama complained. "Nobody made these guys go to war. They had to have known and accepted the risks. Now they whine about bearing the costs of their choice? It doesn't compute." "I thought these were people who were proud to sacrifice for their country, "Obama continued "I wasn't asking for blood, just money.

With the country facing the worst financial crisis in its history, I'd have thought that the patriotic thing to do would be to try to help reduce the nation's deficit. I guess I underestimated the selfishness of some of my fellow Americans."

Please pass this on to every one including every vet and their families whom you know. How in the world did a person with this mindset become our leader? I didn't vote for him!

REMEMBER THIS STATEMENT ... "Nobody made these guys go to war. They had to have known and accepted the risks ... Now they whine about bearing the costs of their choice?"

Please pass this to everyone. I'm guessing that others in the US will agree that this is an important quote to hear and understand. Remind everyone over and over how this man thinks, while he bows to the Saudi Arabian king.

Note from the right jack: This statement was made by the same man who wants to give FREE welfare, health care, higher education, social security and tax benefits to illegal immigrants who have not contributed one thin dime to support our city, county and federal governments.
