No, despite your thinking you know me, I have not forgotten. I have no problem with cuts being made to all agencies...INCLUDING Defense.

However, the Paul-ites want much deeper cuts. They weren't even in favor of going in to topple Hussein.

Once you have a country (economy) you MUST have a strong defense to protect it. Without it, your economy topples.

To: what's up

So why do name call and defend the removal of these conservatives
when it was Bonehead and the GOP who actually voted for automatic
spending cuts in the Grand Bargain the GOP agreed to, as a condition
to raise the debt limit two years ago?
I agree that a strong defense is a must. But you seem more inclined
to give Bonehead a pass, when he actually agreed to automatic spending
cuts in that debt ceiling Grand Bargain two years ago, than two conservatives, who just said they were open to the possibility.
So, what is worse. Bonehead leading a charge to work a Grand Bargain
that had automatic defense spending cuts that passed and will soon be law,
or two conservatives that were supported by the Tea Party that just said
they were open to cuts including defense. One is actual law. Two are
just opinions.
