Obama to Defense Employees: You Deserve Better Than This

  • President Barack Obama spoke to troops and Defense employees minutes after news that congressional inaction had shut down the government, offering some consolation to a department already rocked by budget shortfalls.
all the republicans said was "you are on your own, until Pres. kills his own "LAW" with his own pen in his own hand in his own handwriting.   
that my friends is a feeble attempt to humiliate the Pres., they underestimate his conviction and the fact that he learns quickly no more the probie but the seasoned POTUS, named Barack Hussein Obama two time Big Chair  Champ. 
the table has turned and they are left staring at the ground, just as good as the other places they've looked for answers.
In a video released minutes after the government officially shut down, Obama said he would ensure that men and women in uniform would have all they need to defend the nation, including their paychecks on time. Congress was able to pass legislation ensuring service members are still paid during the shutdown, which Obama signed Tuesday.
It's a different story for DOD civilians, who will not receive paychecks until after Capitol Hill passes a budget bill, regardless of whether they are furloughed. Congress would also have to decide separately if any of these workers would receive back pay. Obama told these civilians they "deserve more than the dysfunction we're seeing in Congress
the republicans say they care about you and getting you a job, heard that somewhere 3 or4 years ago.  but they do nothing ever to prove it.  2012 they promised changes the next day they decided they didn't need to change crap, we need to change the way we hear them.
that too soon abandoned like immigration something they never wanted, that would be tantamount to handing Progressives a win across the board, they chose to not try and make their chances even slimmer than before.
