Paul, a fiscal conservative, opposes the boost to military... Has Mister Paul ever been a friend of our precious Military?

The problem is, if we are really going to allocate $719 billion per year to the Pentagon, there needs to be cutbacks in other parts of the budget to balance things out. Otherwise, the slack has to be picked up with yet more debt. But Congress is not willing to make those kinds of tough choices.

Has Mister Paul ever been a friend of our precious Military? He, and his crazier father, have never been military friendly, that I can recall.

We spend more on our military than the rest of the world combined. I think we can handle spending a little less there.
