Just heard on FoxNews that Obama is planning on asking the Joint Chiefs to cut the defense budget 10%.
Yeah, what is unreasonable about this. I mean so what if he just offered up 850 billion of useless govt spending and new programs, which very little will stimulate the economy. It s not important that what does stimulate the economy will be paid out in late 2010.
So, in perspective, what is a 10% cut when we are in 3 theaters of war 1)Iraq 2)Afghan 3) general WOT.
No problem, let’s rationalize the DOD cut.
Bill Clinton Part Deux?
I am in support of a balanced budget, which would reduce the effectiveness of our government to continue their oppression of us. We need to cut all departments. I don’t think the people in power have one single shred of ability to do the right thing. We will never get anywhere until we can discuss what is wrong with all aspects of government and not just the ones we disagree with.
Irrelevant. No Dept is getting cut except for DOD, CIA, NSA etc.
Wake up and smell the coffee. If you want to be complicit in agreeing with these cuts, feel free.

You are not hearing me. I do not support this. I was just commenting on the real issue and that is government waste. I would suspect I am as strongly supportive of the military as anyone, you need not castigate me as an enemy. We need more funds for covert operations, renditions, secret prisons, and destabilization efforts. We aren’t going to get it anytime soon. Maybe the military could straighten their own ship and put those wasted funds to better use.
Lack of agreement is not castigating someone as an enemy.
Most Army Budgets receive 70% of their requirements...a 10% cut would mean trying to operate at 100% with only 60% funds.
The Hollow Army is returning...Robbing Peter to Pay Paul. Indeed, share the wealth is very prevalent in the Army. The War Fighters get everything they need at the expense of the units at home. Priority to the War Fighters, and to the Wounded Warriors and Families here at home.
Meanwhile, OBSCENE PORK PROJECTS are funded by these weasels!!
Defense is my #1 priority.
This is just so stupid... it’s actually unbelievable.
As much as I support the military
I support the military and defense, cut welfare.
That’s it!!!! This man hates America! He hates our troops and Marines and all the rest! He better not win with this.
I’m stunned.
I guess the geniuses figured out that they can’t create a 2nd budget, call it a stimulus and keep the government viable lol.
You need to correct your statement to 52.9% of the VOTERS, which is different than 52.9 percent of the country and, due to voter fraud, we really don't know if it was 52.9% of the voters do we?
You are so correct. I stand corrected.
That's not a bad start. Sam Adams and the others had less support when they started.
The time is just about here.
Why yes,we have $20 billion to give to Palestinians for more weapons.
I’m thinking that people may be waking up out of their fog.
Obama is not going slow with his agenda. He is slamming down people’s throat fast. I think there are probably people out there that voted for him that may be waking up to the fact that they voted for a socialist who has his own agenda.
Defense is the one and only thing that I’m happy to pay taxes for.
