    If I remember right, didn't Obama promise to get our soldiers out of Iraq and into Afgan where they should of been all along? That's how I remember it.

    So you want to stop sending our troops help? Or stop putting money into Homeland Security?

    that's what his website said since the primaries but he didn't say it publicly too often. just like when he'd talk to liberals he'd call Iraq a dumb war but when he spoke to conservatives he said 1 of the main reasons he was against Iraq was because we weren't done in Afghanistan yet....but if it's a 'dumb war' then whether or not we're done in Afghanistan is meaningless

    It's really simple to understand...you said"what the fuck,this, of course, does not apply to the defense budget and war funding" meaning Obama is going to put a spending freeze on mostly earmarks(i think) but not put a freeze on defense or homeland security. Sounds like a very good idea to me. So now, I am asking you, you want to stop funding our troops and homeland security? :|

    is that what the money goes to? supporting the troops? i thought trillions were unaccounted for from the defense budget over the years and how long did it take the troops to get body armor and armor plating for their vehicles? didn't cities, like Baltimore, promised homeland security money never receive it or only got a fraction of what was promised to them? :roll:
