Oh good grief! It is impossible to eliminate bureaucratic waste, DOD certainly has that sort of waste, but, in the haste to elimiante it, multiple vital programs will be slashed and the bureaucratic waste will continue.
Always it is cut DOD or NASA, never is it cut the giant budget hog at DHHS. Why do you focus om the very people who are giving you the freedom to do as you do and not the people (DHHS) who are focused on telling you what to do?
Teachers are not defending our country, nor is their existance or funding a Constitutional mandate. DOD is.
We are at war for our very existance, in case you missed it, and other countries are either making preperations or are in the process of upgrading their mils. We have aging, destroyed, or obsolesent equipment which desperately need to be either replaced, upgraded, or repaired.
Gates and Obama will welcome your cuts...
