These are the facts---at least 65% of our total federal discretionary spending---a huge majority of the total budget itself---is spent on weapons and their support. Whether you are speculating that I'm a peacenik or one a' them hated progressives that's takin' this great country right down the got dam commie tubes---<g>---you're missing the mark. > For twelve years I have been in leadership of a non-profit group that honors vets with a huge holiday celebration and feast (3500 vets served last year in L.A.; 4500 going to be served this year.) I love, honor, and the warriors that have laid everything on the line for me; I HATE the military-industrial complex that Eisenhower so presciently warned us about over 50 years ago. Wake up. Sending us to the defense budget as reported by the Pentagon is like listening to the fox ramble on about the security measures he's instituting in the chicken house. This is not a partisan issue, dude. This is literally a life-or-death issue for the health and wealth of our fragile democracy. Pull together, Jim, or jump out of the f***in' boat.
