Big spending Obama wants to trim Pentagon budget
ByPresident Obama and the Democrats are planning a giveaway of taxpayer dollars the likes of which no living American has ever seen. It’s a bonanza for the democrats’ supporters and voters. Their new mantra is “Spend, spend, spend!” Unless you count the military.
While the Obama administration tries pushing through its trillion-dollar porkfest of Mall resodding and Medicare expansion, the Pentagon has gotten a much different mission from the White House. President Obama has demanded a 10% reduction in the defense budget for FY2010, even while we fight a war in Afghanistan and conduct counterterrorist operations around the world. Read full story.
Not only are we fighting wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, but Mexico is on the verge of collapse, Russia and Venezuela are playing war games and AlQueda still hates us.
But hey, at least a few less liberals will be born thanks to Madame Speaker Pelosi and The One.

What’s the difference between a liberal and a leftist. The liberal would propose cutting the defense budget by 10% and then will sign a bill for a 10% increase. A leftist would cut the defense budget by 25-50%, bring our troops home from ALL foreign theaters and quit attacking sovereign nations for trumped up reasons.
