As we were before. sorry for being so strong. i want to talk about the military. the president s budget comes out in about a week or so. they re laying the groundwork for what will be a lot of spending increases elsewhere, but to say because of sequester and all these things, we have to cut back on the military. i thought general jack keane said it well, the military is bearing disproportionate cuts because the president is unwilling to basically deal with other problems, mostly from entitlements. we talked about this for years. this is the inevitable process when you go down the path of the ineffecttual state. europe is a boutique of countries because of government programs funded in part by cutting their military. this is exactly what you must do. as our government expands, as we have seen with obamacare, how do you pay for that? you shrink the military. what you ve got is this incredibly dependent society, and they can t defend ....

unbelievable. the people that fight the wars and willingness too serve we re hurting most with pension pay, raises, things of that nature. i m sure admirals were fall on the sword for those that are fighting for it and the benefits they sign up for. chairman, people will blame you guys for accepting sequester and these cuts came through sequester. you adjusted for two years. this is the third year down the line. should the pentagon be pushing back and making the cuts public? sequestration should cut spending. not to sacri phi the military readiness. the debates have been with the president. we have to be the adults in the room. he s consistently refused to do so unless we raise taxes which we did last congress and so i don t i see that as a nonstarter. it takes political courage to do what is right and i think the right thing to do is take on the mandatory driver spendsing. this president refuses to do that. we saw that in the budget that was leased. very disappointing. ....
