“If you want to embrace all of that, go ahead.”

All right, let’s go ahead with it.
You will not like my opinion.

I say the more they cut from defense for the rest of Obama’s term, the better.

Considering how he and his ilk are trying to “transform” the military, the less they have to spend, the less damage they can do.

We do not need a “military” that they are trying to create — essentially a force that is “for show” and not for fighting. Homosexual marriage, women in combat, women on submarines, our military academies teaching cadets that conservatives are “right wing potential terrorists”, domestic terrorist training exercises over major cities — this is progress?

Not in my book. Put the military “on ice” until 2017. Maybe then we’ll get someone who will actually spend wisely to restore it.

I put in my time there, more than forty years ago.
But this is how I see things today.

Don’t give your enemy more power.
And right now, our greatest “enemy” is domestic, not foreign.

Nice work. The most creative and thought provoking comment on this subject yet. I find it hard to disagree with.
