I don’t have much of a problem w/ that....I’m sure there is a LOT of wasteful spending @ the Pentagon. I just wish that the $ would be used to help pay off the national debt or be given back to the taxpayers rather than being shifted to other liberal causes.

THE UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION, Preamble:

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America. [emphasis added]

Kind of "staggers" the mind, that more than two-thirds of the Obama administration's Federal budget has nothing to with anything in the US Constitution, but the one part that is for a purpose specifically enunciated in the very first paragraph gets cut, doesn't it?
