Obama Announces Re-election Bid

For goodness sake, tw. You really are arguing at a tangent from Lookout there. He very clearly stated that he would want to drastically cut down military spending. Just that he wuold do so by gutting the wasteful and fraudulent elements of RnD, and stop having soldiers posted in bases all over the globe. he specifically said he would want the US military to stop being a global police force and concentrate on having the best and most effective army possible for the defence of the nation.

The tangent is the real problem and the only viable solution.

Yes, we do have too many troops overseas. Our extremists want to station as many troops in Iraq as we already have in Korea. That makes no sense. But the solution is not found in cutting costs. The solution is found in addressing the only reasons for those costs.

And again, that cannot happen when we cannot even eliminate the paper dollar bill.
