I like how politicians, especially democrats, use the word "invest" when referring to additional govt spending. I agree with cutting wasteful spending in the military but more importantly..cuttting wasteful spending in ALL govt. BTW Obama, the private sector constantly invests in science and technology we don't need politicians doing it for us. This guy has a wierd view on what our country is and should be.
ReplyDeleteThe one and only place this imposter is willing to cut spending is in the defense department and it has nothing to do with fiscal responsibility. It is all about weakening America which is the very reason this communist was selected by soros and the media.
ReplyDeleteAmen 9:03 this guy hates the U.S and we will be lucky if we can make it to 2012. And God help us if this country re elects him.
ReplyDeleteEliminating the Dept of Energy would be a great start. What a money pit they are!
ReplyDeleteLike Robert Gates said recently at a Congressional Hearing, it's hard to cut Defense spending when the politicians keep putting us in more "situations"(wars/peace keeping/etc etc etc).
ReplyDeleteIf you cut defense we'll have to bring our soldiers home. What's wrong with that? They shouldn't be in Iraq and Afghanistan anyway!
ReplyDeleteIf the military wasn't so huge, we wouldn't have been involved in these two useless, nonsense wars to begin with. Bring them home and let them protect US, right here at HOME!
We could save a whole lot of money if were were not continuing to pay for 2 wars which were authorized under Bush. People want to blame Obama for everything but they conveniently forget that we're still paying for a past president's mistakes as well!
ReplyDeleteThose wars aren't useless. Iraq has lots of oil and Afghanistan has lots of opium. If the U.S can control them they have the world by the gonads.

ReplyDeleteNobama has had over two years to end theses wars and bring the soldiers home. Instead he has started a third war in Libya, so yes it is his fault
It should be called Dept of Offense.
ReplyDeleteWE attack others. Period.
