Obama demands 10-percent cut from Pentagon

Ed Morrissey:

Obama’s busy expanding all of the rest of the government except for its primary, Constitutional mission: defending the nation.

With several friends serving our country in the armed forces, I can only pray they continue to have jobs until they are ready to leave the service.

I'm pretty sure that with two wars on we're not going to be drawing down force sizes.

This 10% cut will probably come from the cancellation of stupid weapons programs. Now, I'm not saying all weapons are stupid -- just some of them. There's no need to build 3GW-oriented equipment like mobile artillery pieces, heavy bombers, etc., when we've moved into a 4GW world.
