I wonder if Frank and Paul will meet at Frank’s house for a nice glass of wine and sit by the fire while they study the budget.

ron paul is a friggin' anti America jerk*** that would better fit into a 60’s commune rather than in government.

This is a quote from someone, referring to Barney Frank:

"He's supportive of our troops," Bernier said. "He's just saying we should take a look at taking care of our own instead of taking care of the rest of the world."

Yeah, right. These leeches just want money for their own pet projects to keep getting votes from their parasitic voter base. Meanwhile, our troops get the short end of the stick.

I have long suspected that Ron Paul not only shares many things with Barney Frank but co-mingles them as well.

[Clyde5445]

Well it will help pay for Paul’s earmarks don’t you know.

Defend this, Paultard...

Wusses! Only a 25% cut? Do away with the military altogether
and fund a domestic force to maintain order and support the
Fuhrer.

[dubie]

I don't see the problem. We spend 1.5 trillion a year on defense. We have bases in over 150 countries? We should not be the police of the world and we already have two illegal unconstitutional wars going on right now. Does anyone care about the constitution? I agree with having a strong military but all of our troops should be home. The best way to honor our military is not to send them to war at all unless in defense after an attack (we were attacked not by a state but by individuals). We should be defending our own borders. We are broke. Why are we nation building?? Sending our troops without a declaration of war and then tie their hands... http://towneforcongress.com/platform-issues/afghanistan-war/

O.K., Paulbots, defend THIS!!!!

Sure.

In an age of $1.5 Trillion Dollar Deficits, does somebody want to explain to me why we've still got over 80,000 troops defending Germany? Italy? France fer crying out loud?

Let "Old Europe" defend itself. With the Economy suffering the worst downturn since the Great Depression, any dimwitted Paul-Hater who DOESN'T look to Cut the massive Defense Subsidies we provide for numerous countries which don't need it is not a Conservative at all -- they're just a slack-jawed idiot.

Game, set, match.

It is amazing some of crap being funded by DoD. Of course a lot have to do with earmarks from Congress (e.g., extra Gulfstreams to fund Pelosi’s trips home). But there are also stupid waste, fraud, and abuse programs to further objectives other than was is best for the warfighter.

For example, the F-22 is an awesome aircraft, but where is the upgrade/replacement for the A-10 Warthog? Most of the AF brass hate it because it is not sexy (fighter or bomber). The AF A-10 pilots love it, and so does the Army. But it about took an act of God to get them into the fight for operation Anaconda (2002).
