Dear Mr. Backwoods, Please run accusations through snopes before posting. http://www.snopes.com/politics/military/payfreeze.asp
I will quote this in case you missed it "Obamas Fiscal 2011 budget proposal called for a 1.4% pay increase to military pay for 2011" and it was approved by congress (the democrat one) in december 2010, while he froze salaries of all other Federal Workers for two years.
Thank you
