The traitorous son of a bitch is selling us out, selling our future out, and consigning us to the dustbin of history! This is much worse than what the left-wing bastards did to us in Vietnam - this is lying down and letting the enemy roll over us! A horrible day for America - another four years of this maggot and there will be nothing left of our great Nation! I only hope that it's not too late to reverse the damage he's done if we turn him out in November!

Etiam non princeps sed usque ad genua, Principis Pacis!

I couldn’t agree more. Right after he was elected I had reservations that Obama was against our country. No more, I fully believe that!

Ollie is spot on, as usual. I called Boehner’s office today to register my outrage. Their response was that the courts would declare this unconstitutional (ho-hum). I insisted that they take my info and register my displeasure with that response. We can’t take 4 more years.

Thanks for the post jaz. I certainly hope enough Americans learned the lesson about inspiring Leftist lies, and will be voting to rid us of these Leftist crackpots in November.

“selling our future out, and consigning us to the dustbin of history”

All part of his plan to “fundamentally transform America”. First bankrupt us with spending and social programs we can’t afford.

Then — Oh looky! Guess we have to gut our armed forces. Can’t afford it anymore. Dang.

He is ensuring the votes of the Paulites, I think. Would not surprise me if Paul gave his acclamation to this move.

There is an interesting paradox in these cutbacks.

Europeans have long complained about “cowboy” America, that intervenes forcefully when a situation is starting to spiral out of control.

From the European point of view, it is much better to hold endless committee meetings, and try to bore aggressors and tyrants into capitulation, which not surprisingly, almost never happens.

Yet Europeans forget the long term consequences of their actions as well. By not intervening, for example, what will be their *only* means of response, if say, Europe is attacked with a nuclear missile?

Simple, to respond with their own nuclear missiles in a medium sized nuclear war.

So you have to ask yourself, what is better, to be a “cowboy”, or to procrastinate until it’s too late, then overreact?

Obama and many Democrats literally adore the Europeans’ rather silly philosophies and way of doing business, that they like, but never produces results like the way America does business. Yet Obama and many Democrats so *hate* how America does things that they tell themselves the European way *must* be better.

So with these massive cutbacks, they are forcing America to have a defense policy similar to Europe. That is, we will no longer be able to intervene early, and when we do intervene, it will have to be with far harsher, and less discriminating weapons. There will be *more* civilian casualties and more “collateral damage”.

Far less “hearts and minds”, and far more “kill them all and let their heathen gods sort them out.”

But that’s the European way, so it must be better, right?

so 1.1 trillion over ten years is 110 billion per year less after the yearly increases which means there will be no real decrease. Just odumbi trying to raise more cash from the left. Cut a buck here add a buck there. I wouldn’t mind some conventional arms reducing if we first could just nuke Iran.

Playing the proportional conventional response game and the surgical strike game has shown no positive results in decades. Islam is getting stronger.

Sooner or later they will nuke US.

We can't afford to repeat the mistakes that have been made in the past — after World War II, after Vietnam — when our military was left ill-prepared for the future.

Liberals always accuse other people of doing what they're about to.
