Obama Vetoes National Defense Bill

[mdk]

Good. It should have been vetoed. The GOP wants to increase the Pentagon's budget ($38.3 billion) despite the sequester but keep in place the sequester for domestic spending. Fuck that! Both need to be cut even further. The Pentagon is incapable of performing an audit on itself but somehow every dime they receive is necessary and proper. lol

I would hate to find out if it's not

-Geaux

It is not. Waste/corruption are everywhere and the fact that DOD is unable to perform an audit of itself is very troubling.

You have no way of knowing if it's not. We only find out after its to late

Lets audit the FED first

-Geaux

Of course I do. There is a shit ton of waste all throughout the government and The Pentagon isn't immune. They are required by law to have a external audit by The Chief Financial Officers Act and they have been unable to do. Considering how much we spend on the DOD this news should raise major red flags.

A great deal of information can found here:
Audit the Pentagon – Make every defense dollar count

It should, but it doesn't. Again, you or I have no understanding of the required military posture. Kind of like driving without a seat belt. I'm not ready to accept the risk to find out if you're right

-Geaux

Fiscal conservatives everywhere weep at this statement.

Great deal!! I'm glad he vetoed that Bullshit!! To much Military pork, fuck the military, its too damn bloated anyways..

Hey I thought you Cons, Tea Maggots were AGAINST BIG GOVERNMENT?? , shrinking Government starts with the Military!!

In case you didn't realize it, the Constitution delegates Congress to fund the military. How is it big government for the government to do one of the few things government was delegated to do. You confuse big government with more money than you like being spent on something for which the Constitution say it can be spent.

And the commander n chief has the veto power, to shove that shit, pork bill up Congress ass, if your party wins the WH, WHICH IS A HUGE IF , then the Repug Prez can pass this horsehit, but until then oh fucking well,, im sick of that fucking bloated ass Military, and all of the whores in the Gopher party that want to keep throwing them money, That's socialism remember!!

Glad to see your sorry ass midterm wins last year didn't amount to shit, you don't have a veto proof majority

 

[BIG YANK BAL 1976]

$36B in Republican pork = Veto.

Yet Obama signed a $787 pork bill in February 2009 and you were OK with that.

Hell yea I'm OK with it, he's the President, he spent his political capital just like drunk Bush did..

Hell yeah, another Obama ass licker.

Yea just like you licked the ass of Bush, hope it tasted good..

You ASSume too much boy.

What's next for you, licking Hillary's twat?

No the guy that kicked your sorry ass party back in the 90's by slamming you 2x and thankfully nuked Waco takes care of that..

Another dumbass poster in here with Hillary derangement syndrome, don't have Trump videos to go Masturbate too??

I said this in another thread. he would sacrifice us ALL in order to get his way. he could give a shit less about anyone but himself

If the Republicans put things in the bill that are designed as a politics ploy, for example they know he said he'd close Guantanamo to prisoners by the end of his term, so they put a thing in there to make sure it doesn't happen, then you can see why he vetoed it.

Politics all round by politicians.

Are you surprised? I mean, most people on this forum love that side of the game, and will spend their whole time reveling the politics.

well really? We've seen the Democrats do that ALL the time. and then with the help of these lamestream DNC medias like hufferpuffer, ABC, CNN etc, they have headlines that put the blame on Republicans. It's a game they play on all of US.

BUT this is for our DEFENSE. Obama has no problems vetoing it. it's shameful

Yes, Democrats play politics and Republicans play politics and the people lose. However the people keep on voting (stupidly) for the two main parties. You get what you deserve, as the saying goes.

If you don't like them, DON'T VOTE FOR THEM.

I can't disagree with that. we can wish people would get more involved. but that is all we can do, is wish.

More involved? I just wish people knew what they were voting for. Most don't. Even people who take an interest, like many on this board, don't have a freaking clue what they're voting for.

That's what I was talking about. Back in the day we'll say with Carter, Reagan people were more Involved as you put it. they had a clue. but then it went down hill since then. some of it has become almost scary to watch

Yeah, I guess people knowing they can get knowledge at the touch of a button means they don't bother. Having too much entertainment has also led people away from caring. But also people are complacent, they don't care because they believe others will care for them, but now those people who are "caring" are caring only about themselves.

This veto was extraordinary. But considering the source, not surprising he puts our troops in harms way to elevate his social agenda

So any number or budget that Congress passes every president is obligated to sign it?

Not how it works, sorry. Why didn't they pass one they knew he would sign? By your logic, they were putting our troops in harms way.

Hilarious!
