Been where done what, asswipe?
I just love the toy soldiers who have anonymous names like "warrior". It is just so damn..........impressive!!
The Warrior was a 102 cubic inch motorcycle (Roadstar Warrior) I once owned, non-serving numbnuts. It's got nothing to do with my military service or your lack thereof, assbrain.
For all these stupid idiot libs the military budget is historically low as a percentage of GDP
If I was President, I'd cut that god-damn defense budget in half! We don't need to be spending a fucking trillion dollars a year on god-damn defense, when our economy is in the shape it's in now.
And what does having over 800 military bases all around the world have to do with defense anyway? How does our military, protect this country, when they're not physically in the country they're defending? Why should the Pentagon take 1/3 of every US taxpayer dollar every year? And finally, why do all these tea baggers who say they're upset over un-necessary government spending, say nothing about cutting defense spending?
The top U.S. military official suggested Wednesday that scheduled Pentagon budget cuts could lead to war.
Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, testified before a Senate committee Wednesday alongside Defense Secretary Leon Panetta. Both offered dire warnings about the potential impact of the automatic budget cuts, known as sequestration, which will go into effect starting next January unless Congress intervenes.
Dempsey said the cutbacks could lead to the cancellation of weapons systems and disrupt "global operations." In turn, he warned, the U.S. could lose global standing -- opening the door for enemies to test American military might.
"We can't yet say precisely how bad the damage would be, but it is clear that sequestration would risk hollowing out our force and reducing its military options available to the nation," Dempsey told the senators. "We would go from being unquestionably powerful everywhere to being less visibly globally and presenting less of an overmatch to our adversaries, and that would translate into a different deterrent calculus and potentially, therefore, increase the likelihood of conflict."
Panetta made a similar argument last year when he said the sweeping cuts could weaken the military substantially, and invite "aggression" abroad

and?
Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children. This is not a way of life at all in any true sense. Under the cloud of threatening war, it is humanity hanging from a cross of iron.
Dwight D. Eisenhower,
Theres load of waste in defence just like every other bloated Govt program.
They need to make cuts across the board and nothing, not even defense, should be left out.

Just to be clear cutting waste is not the same thing as across the boards cuts in the military. No we don't need across the board spending cuts and if anyone thinks a weaker American military is good for world peace they are sadly mistaken

Dwight D. Eisenhower,
You're another bung-hole surfer that needs to enlist, asswipe.

Across the board cuts are exactly what we need. Can you imagine how quickly that waste will be found, once they are instituted?
And another thing, why should WE have to foot the bill for "world peace"?
