Right.
One might, with some degree of plausibility, claim that these cuts will degrade our ability to meet our military obligations or goals.
But for them to make us a “second-rate power” would require that one or more other countries suddenly outclass us.
Which isn’t going to happen.

You bring up an interesting thing about my attitude since the last election. It’s almost like I WANT them to get their way so the world can see where it leads.

85 billion dollars cut from 4 trillion dollars outlay is going to transform us into a second rate power?
What a crock of Obama.
