The Obama administration has advised Congress to cut off pensions for 26 elderly members of the World War II-era Alaska Territorial Guard who served the nation without pay during the Japanese attack.

According to McClatchy Newspapers, the administration sent a "strongly worded" message to Congress concerning its priorities for a military spending bill, and the service members didn't make the cut.

The unthinkable has happened

These brave men and women laid the foundation for a better republic. They sacrificed, thousands died horribly, others had life-long physical and emotional scars, in their quest to rid the world of the lousy Nazis and Japanese.

And now they are being shut out.

I can almost hear Rahm Emanuel advising Obama, "They're old. They are going to die anyway.

It's unspeakably mean and a slap in the face to all veterans.

What the hell were they thinking? Dear Lord this is just terrible.

For their defense of the empire

The empire thanks them, and wishes them well.

Tell it to their faces

I would love for Obama to tell those Vets to their faces just why they deserve nothing..
And an idea sparks
What would happen if people got in the faces of congress/senate..and demanded to know why they where not deserving?
Why are we not deserving of FREEDOM?
Why are we not deserving of an honest government that follows the Constitution?
Why are we not deserving to keep our jobs instead of having them shipped off?
Why are we not deserving enough to keep the money we earn?(gov. grabbing a slice of the pie..and soon..the whole damn pie!)

Freedom is another way to God...A corrupt government is a straight way to hell.
