Bob Woodward goes full retard.

The Washington Post’s Bob Woodward attacked President Barack Obama on Wednesday, saying the commander-in-chief’s decision not to deploy an aircraft carrier because of budget cuts is “a kind of madness.”
“Can you imagine Ronald Reagan sitting there and saying ‘Oh, by the way, I can’t do this because of some budget document?’” Woodward said Wednesday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.” “Or George W. Bush saying, ‘You know, I’m not going to invade Iraq because I can’t get the aircraft carriers I need’

Bob's right on one point I guess, Uncle Ronnie and President Duh never let a little thing like "budget" or "money" stand in the way of increasing the debt in the name of military spending.

Old white guy paranoid about "teh Commies coming back". News at 11.


Looking for the poll, but something recently showed that young people were most in favor of cutting Defense spending, and old people the least. Guess it (along with everything else we want) comes down to waiting for those old people to just die off already.

edit: fuggit, this one shows 18-39 breakdown, works for me.
