So, in addition to destroying the military, it looks like that empty-suited, Anti-American racist bigot in the White House is now out to destroy the country.
In case it's escaped his attention, we are in a war. Do you get that, Berry? We're in a war. And as moronic as risking military catastrophe by unleashing the gay community on combat units actually is; as stupid and unconscionable as telegraphing arbitrary withdrawal dates can truly be; shrinking the size of the military while we're at war has got to top the cake.
Is there places the military can be cut? Of course there are: like any other government civilians, the DOD civilians can face a 25% pay cut; a massive benefit cut and a massive numbers cut. It seems to me that these cuts are announced as a response to the right-leaning votes from those who will be cast out, and that the LAST thing we would want to do in the circumstances confronting us today is to reduce our fighting capability while the wolves of Iran, Russia, China and North Korea are circling the gate.
In fact, there's an argument that Charley Rangle's draft bill should be brought back up and passed, because we have no where NEAR the number of troops we need under arms.
Idiocy wrapped in criminal stupidity.

Ridiculous doesn't even begin to address this utter stupidity.
Cut civilian staff in the Pentagon, along with any union affiliation they may have and generous benefits offered.
Each of them is paid much better than our Troops and don't have to face any danger, other than maybe a paper cut.
I'll never fully understand why Democrats, who once professed love of our country, goes out of their way to bring us defeat after defeat to foreign powers.
I bet they wouldn't be voting this way if terrorists were shooting at them.
