Not an ounce of gratitude in their empty, unpatriotic hearts: VJ, obama, soros, holder, reid, lynch, shumer, pelosi, etc. Obama was the worst of all though, what with his inability to say the Pledge of Allegiance, he followed the communist line and principles, and reduced our military to criminal levels of strength, saluted with a cup of coffee in his saluting hand; he couldn't even abide by the Constitution in spite of his claim to have taught it. Scum don't get much lower than that! VJ even denied obama permission to whack Osama; 5 times and the gutless wonder obeyed her and forced Leon Panetta to have to give the order. Obama was more fit to carry the hod than the epaulet!

Let's not forget how Obama cupped his hands at his crotch when the National Anthem played - understandable of course, considering his vote for the most beautiful sound on earth was "the Muslim Call To Prayer."
He prayed in Rev. Wrongs church for twenty years - thus being subjected to, or rather, agreeing with, "damning America." He bowed down to foreign leaders on foreign lands. He apologized, and apologized, and apologized for America. He launched his first Presidential Campaign in the home of Bill Ayers, an unrepentant terrorist who was seen on the cover of "Chicago" magazine stomping on our beautiful flag.
Barry's US government increased military pay just 1 percent in 2014, the smallest hike in 41 years and down from a 3.9 percent raise in 2009 and a 6.9 percent jump in 2002, according to the Military Times. The Pentagon said it would shrink the U.S. Army to pre-World War Two levels, eliminate the popular A-10 aircraft and reduce military.
While America’s naval fleet has been declining in size, depending on fewer large vessels, China has been producing larger numbers of smaller, more agile naval weapons and missile systems. According to one report, “Once again we confront the dilemmas of asymmetric warfare. Missiles of all kinds are far cheaper and easier to build than large surface warships.
There is probably no air defense system that can reliably fight off a saturation attack launched at a target as large as a CVN [nuclear-powered aircraft carrier].”
Concerns are growing that it will not be long before China’s navy is larger than the American navy, which will be unable to defend itself. An expert puts it succinctly: “The heart of our
navy today is the aircraft carrier, an effective weapon. Almost all of our other surface ships exists to serve it. That works well against third rate navies, but in a fight against a modern naval power, our carrier fleets could not leave port.”
It is clear that the Obama Administration's rules of engagement, which restrain troops from firing in order to spare civilian casualties, cut back on airstrikes and artillery strikes — the types of support that PROTECT TROOPS during raids and ambushes.
“In Afghanistan, the [rules of engagement] that were put in place in 2009 and 2010 created hesitation and confusion for our war fighters,” said Wayne Simmons, a retired U.S. intelligence officer who worked in NATO headquarters in Kabul as the rules took effect, first under Army Gen. Stanley M. McChrystal, then Army Gen. David H. Petraeus.
Obama couldn't find the money to increase our defenses or give our military a raise - however, Obama spent enough to leave our children and grandchildren with a $20 TRILLION debt to pay, and the promise of a welcome for thousands more illegals who can't even be vetted. Add them to the millions of illegals already here and the the tens of thousands of felons Obama has released from prison - murderers, rapists, kidnappers, assaulters - and he definitely left our country "fundamentally transformed"!!! Immigrants are one thing - unvetted illegals are not only strangers but dangerous - something else entirely.
