Look I will agree that progressives constantly want defense cuts without touching any domestic spending, and that domestic spending does need to be brought to bear. So does defense spending. The military wastes ungodly sums of money on crap. Asking them to tighten the belt is not a bad thing. and saying that they are going to slow the growth of the defense budget is not a terrible idea. The military is bloated with worthless personell pilfering government money because they needed bodies. Now they are going to start working to shed the dead weight and keep the best personell. Defense Cuts is one of those things that gets a nice knee jerk reaction from conservatives, but once again, there are no “Defense Cuts” That would imply that the military would be getting less money next year than it did this year, and that is simply not the case.
