That article is total bullshit through and through. One tiny example.

" Obama cut off hot meals for Marines in Afghanistan, Islamic terrorists in Guantanamo Bay were enjoying lemon baked fish, honey glazed chicken, lyonaise rice, tandouri chicken breast, okra, hummus, dates, honey and seasoned lentils."

Does anyone really believe that the meal plan in AG was a presidential level decision? Does anyone really believe that the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs and the Commandant of the Marine Corps prepared a briefing for the POTUS, got on the POTUS calendar, and took up the President's time to present a briefing on the meal options for Marines in AG? That the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs thought that this decision was so important that no one in the military could make that decision, and they needed the POTUS to make the call?

How did that briefing go? "Mr President, we can either feed the troops hot meals or cold ones. We can't make up our minds, it exceeds our decision making capabilities and we need your decision on this. ". What utter, total bullshit.

I agree with most of you people about 95% of the time. The other 5% y'all sound like those of the tin foil hat club.

I could only get through a third of this hatchet job before becoming so disgusted I had to quit reading. Aside from lumping Islam in with Nazism and Communism as the "evils" we have fought against, this article ignores the true history of the relationship between the government and veterans. That relationship has always been tenuous, at best. The government has always made promises to get young men to go fight in foreign wars, only to go back on those promises after the war ended. WWII is arguably the only time in history where the government gave something back to the returning veterans, without having to be forced or shamed into it.

This article is pure propaganda, filled with half-truths, misinformation, and outright lies.
