One base doesn’t mean anything...but a 40k man reduction to a 400k man army is totally insane in this world.
From a Sierra Vista article this morning: “Russia, for example, boasts more than 766,000 troops and a reserve force that tops 2.4 million. China has an active force of 2.3 million and India weighs in at 1.3 million.”
The homosexuals are taking over.
mistake - we will rue the day

I am gobsmacked that so many agree with it.
When we are conquered, they will get what they deserve.
I’m in favor of giving Hawaii to China to pay off our debt. Nothing but commies in that state anyway. And I use to live there.
I remember when Fort Springfield closed on the Simpsons the news reported how it devastated the local prostitution and liquor industries. You can probably add to the electronic sales and new/used car sales.
I could not locate the poll, but it’s probably the smartphone I’m using.
If you think like a Democrat, or like several generations of voters educated in Marxist government schools, Hawaii is a product of America’s racist, colonialist past. So it should not be defended. However, progressive policies and ideas of Obama the Great mean that no one will attack us, anyway. Hawaii can just be allowed to go it’s own way in peace.
You guys are so agwessive!! You are like Womney imagining the Chinese would hack US computers.
if we want spending cut it has to come from somewhere.
Where should we cut? The numbers that are needed are so large that the next step is cutting pensions and making government employees work longer.
Then comes social security cuts.
You might not like it, but we are not that far removed from Greece. Keep electing these idiots in Congress and it will continue
An invitation for the Krauts to attack us again there!
Hawaiian radicals have always wanted the US out of their ancestors’ land. When our military leaves they will get their wish come true. China or Russia would love to have Hawaii. And they will if they can get away with it.
Well, if we trade Hawaii to China for the debt we owe them, we don’t want to have any of our military left behind.
If somebody joins the military, they learn important things like:
Be to work on time.
Don’t show up to work drunk.
Take care of your personal hygiene.
Take care of your equipment.
If somebody gets food stamps, they learn important things like:
I don’t have to work!
Gimme more free stuff you rich bastich!
I can afford that Cadillac payment! They didn’t even check!
Vote Democrat because they steal and maybe they’ll steal some for you.
FReeped!
The continuing weakening of the country. These are soldiers that work. The money saved will feed the masses of parasites invading the country that are coming to stuff the demrat ballot boxes. BO continues his war on American Patriots.
What poll?
