No, they are getting dismissed because Obama is gutting the military.
2013 military spending:
US $640bn
China $180bn
Russia $ 88bn
Just how much is enough?
If reduced to just match the combined China and Russia figure of $268bn the US could save something like $372bn? ($372,000,000) What could be done with a sum like that? Anything useful come to mind?
Send all the nutcases to a psychoanalyst is one possibility. Well - all the nutcases who are not actually psychoanalysts.

The only thing that really makes me angry is the direction the leftists have taken this once great nation. I also find dealing with idiot leftists who have a screwed up view of reality because they live in free countries made that way by better people than themselves. Of course there are also the leftists who have no problem with running a country so far into debt that it can't possibly pay for it in the long run, which means it is only a matter of time before the nation drowns in its own debt.

Originally posted by EladarYes, you look foolish because everyone else is an idiot, [implicitly] other than yourself. That works. Perfect sense.

It is not.

What's a private in China/Russia make, some piddly pocket change ?
PLUS our military gets gouged paying bizarre amounts for crap like five hundred dollar hammers, fifty buck screws, or toilet seats that cost a grand.....lot of sad corruption going on in American military funding.
Originally posted by KazetNagorraThis may be humorous to you not a US resident. For about a century posse comitatus assured US citizens the military would not be used against them. A few years ago, US servicemen were questioned as to whether they would obey orders to shoot American citizens to confiscate guns. About half said they would.
Oh dear, they'd better train more elite forces in order to be able to confront the army of old, obese men.
Originally posted by normbenignOnly if this happens without warning. But if the secret service found out say, a week in advance, then I don't see it as implausible that the military would be contacted to defend the president (assuming he's not simply moved to a different location).
Theoretically, that is the job of the Secret Service, not the military.
