Defense should be among the last things cut.
Hagel should be at the top fd the Very Short List of people who MUST GO!
the Navy is going to shrink to below WW I levels.
The Air Force is going to be the smallest it ever has been.
The Army is going to shrink to pre WW II.
I see no downside to this this because we all know the world is now safer than ever, with a nuclear North Korea, Iran and a new aggressive super power in China. Everyone knows that when the German bomb Pearl Harbor next time, our enemies will give us a six months to a year to rebuild and rearm as well. Since with these high tech toys we now need will only take that long to establish.
Oh this is going to easy, what could go wrong? My only solace is the left coast will get it worst. Reap the whirlwind you idiots.
