HERE WE GO: Costly US weapons face budget cuts under Obama

DefenceTalk.com ^

[DTAD]

Hi-tech fighter aircraft, new warships and missile defense projects are all potential targets for big cuts in the US defense budget, as the American military faces a new era of limits under President Barack Obama.

With a mushrooming budget deficit of more than a trillion dollars, the new administration has signaled it hopes to scale back military spending partly through a planned reduction of troops in Iraq and by taking the axe to big ticket weapons programs.

[GOP Poet]

Lord help us all.

[babubabu]

what a JOKE!

[The_Media_never_lie]

He cuts our defense while he disables our economy. Yes, Obama’s gone to change the world.

[dennisw]

“Obama putting military in harm’s way?”
Chad Groening - OneNewsNow - 2/26/2009 5:00:00 AM

SNIPPET: “A military advocacy organization is not happy with President Barack Obama’s plans to drastically cut defense spending by $53 billion.”

[txnativegop]

Increase the number of military personnel, but cut back the weapons systems that they need. The Leftist mind is a terrible thing to use.

[denydenydeny]

We'll be decades trying to fix the problems. Meanwhile, if the attack happens during the next (presumably Republican) administration, they will accrue all the blame for "letting it happen on their watch."

[gargoyle]

...We have the defense and determination within our nation to survive. We've been attacked from the outside, and now we're under attack within, time to load the muskets. We can live as a sovereign nation or we die together...

and to think so many people involved in the defense industry in NOVA voted for obama. serves their ignorance right.

[Doogle]

I'm waiting for the clown to appoint some released Gitmo terrorist to a spot with border patrol. THIS IS ALL ON YOU BATBOY!

[RC one]

President Travis and his troop are doing a swell job so far.

[ArmstedFragg]

So can we count the lost defense jobs against his rapidly shrinking claims for the number of jobs he’ll “save or create”?

[oldenuff2no]

BATBOY will get hundreds of thousands of our citizens killed before he gets done. He thinks if he can read it off of a teleprompter that the world will do as he asks.
What an ignorant stupid moron he has turned out to be.
You get peace by having a big well armed standing military ready, willing, and able to kick their ass if they start something.
You talk to them after they know that you can kill them. This kid has a lot to learn about how things work out in our big bad world.
One last incite. Our military men and women absolutely hate BATBOY. They look on him as a traitor. They have lost any and all respect for him with the full knowledge of his complete lack of experience with anything military. They fully realize that his military ignorance is going to get a lot of people killed within the next couple years.

[Brad from Tennessee]

The only consolation to driving this country into a brick wall at 80 miles an hour is that a Democrat is at the wheel.

Rump ranger House buffoon Barney Frank said the other day that the military budget should be cut 25 percent because the military is not a good economic stimulus.

So, didn't The ObaMaoist send Mrs. Bill Clinton to Red China for the Sec. Com OK just before he named Gary Locke his commerce nominee?
