Barack Bashes Military Again--Forcing into ObamaCare?

If you like your plan you can keep it? That yes we can Barack Obama is Dear Leader Diktat, this time breaking faith with those who have put their lives at risk and on hold to serve our country. This proposal leaves Obama's allies, unionized federal employees untouched, duh.
Dempsey said the military is making tough choices in cutting defense spending. In addition to the $487 billion over 10 years, the Pentagon is facing automatic cuts that could push the total reductions to $1 trillion. [snip]
Significantly, the plan calls for increases between 30 percent to 78 percent in Tricare annual premiums for the first year. After that, the plan will impose five-year increases ranging from 94 percent to 345 percent—more than 3 times current levels.[snip]
“We all recognize that we are in a time of austerity,” this aide said. “But defense has made up to this point 50 percent of deficit reduction cuts that we agreed to, but is only 20 percent of the budget.”
This is the ObamaCare leviathan, destroying our liberties with its unconstitutional mandate. This is our President Barack Obama, rewarding his allies, punishing those who defend freedom for us all.
