Gee, I wonder when the other departments will get 10% cuts...

[Indy Pendance]

Well of course.

[for-q-clinton]

Ruh roh! My contractor job supports the military and I’m a reservist!

I hope his cuts don’t hit me on both sides. We can spend 1 trillion dollars on condoms, STDs, abortions overseas, a ton of pork, but we can’t afford our military.

[Eye of Unk]

Ruh Roh!

This is NOT going to bode well for the Obamination.

I feel a whole lot of issues coming up with this.

[MindBender26]

But of course ACORN gets millions in the Big Pork Bill!

[scott says]

Here we go. Cut Defense but spend BILLIONS on all kinds of idiotic social engineering “programs” under the “stimulus” Package.
Absolutely need to cut down on waste and inefficient spending but we all know this will go way beyond that.

[Right Wing Assault]

It’s a late Friday announcement. That means it’s BAD.

[sport]

That is what the American public wanted.

bump ... Obama wants to gut the military? Say it ain't so.

Ayers' targets are finally getting bombed. :(

I can imagine Zero telling the Defense Dept.: "You guys are spending too much on paint! We are not running a Home and Garden Network, we are trying to save some money on more important things. As of today, there will be no more use of paint!"

I have a suggestion for Defense Secretary Robert Gates: Tell Zero that we need a 10% increase in military spending!

Any cuts in military spending are a signal to our enemy to attack the United States and our allies.

[sageb1]

Has he chosen which country he wants to be the next and only superpower yet?

[GatorGirl]

Nice, he can spend like a drunken sailor (no offense to drunken sailors!) and his first (and probably only) cut is to the military!!

Lovely!!!

Ping to this......

(Yep, that's right — he takes money AWAY from our soldiers who need it, and gives it to those who we're fighting against! Is everyone in his administration clueless, or what? How about figuring out what can be cut safely given that we are at war before stating how MUCH to cut?)

I wonder if this was something he discussed with his Al Qaeda buddies???

Peace in our time.

Thanks, Lord Obama (piss be upon him).

[Starfleet Command]

Come on, debilitating presidential stroke!

[Kimmers]

Blood will be on “o” hands.....

[Las Vegas Ron]

Nothing like rolling out the RED carpet invetation to attack us.

This idiot will be thrown out before the first year is up, and hopfully on his stupid f'n head. Scyoooze me whilst I go puke

[mware]

Just pulled this up from Boston Globe.

The briefings do not specify which programs should be cut, but defense analysts say that prime targets would probably include the new F-35 fight er jet, a series of Navy ship programs, and a massive Army project to build a new generation of ground combat vehicles, all of which have been skyrocketing in cost and suffering long development delays.

Such cuts would affect the New England economy. General Dynamics builds warships and submarines in Maine and Connecticut, while Raytheon, Massachusetts' largest employer, is involved in numerous weapons programs from ships to missile defenses and satellites.

[EGPWS]

Just heard on FoxNews that Obama is planning on asking the Joint Chiefs to cut the defense budget 10%.

Defense is part of Obama's plan to print worthless pieces of paper less 10% via budget?
