That “nonpartisan” veterans Political Action Committee, VoteVets<\/a>, weighed in on the remarkable news that the services made their recruiting and retention goals last year (NYT link<\/a>) – sort of like they’ve made most of their goals over the last eight years. When the services were retaining and recruiting during the Bush years, we listened to dicksmith and others explain it away with excuses like they’d lowered their standards, that they were recruiting racists and boobs. Now, of course, it’s thanks to the magnificence that is Obama. <\/p>\n

I think it also must be considered that the American people have more confidence in their new Commander-in-Chief. Some of the success can also be attributed to the increased benefit provided by the Post-9\/11 G.I. Bill. While neither of these, nor the economy, alone led to the recruiting success, they are all absolutely important factors. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Yeah, he had to add the other stuff, just so he could pretend that he didn’t just crawl out from under Obama’s desk. <\/p>\n

Since dicksmith frequents TAH, maybe he can answer me a question; What has Obama done to inspire such confidence? Is it his diddling over giving the generals what they’ve requested? Attempting to cut our health benefits and increasing our portion of the bill? Is it the excellent way the GI Bill has been administered? Please, just show me one thing in which he’s inspired such confidence.<\/p>\n

Yeah, I’m biased, but I’ve never claimed to be “nonpartisan”.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
