I’m usually annoyed with Democrats point to the national budget and get all hot and bothered that defense spending is the biggest slice. Yeah, it’s huge. It’s insanely huge, but it’s also about the only 100% legitimate task of the Federal government that requires any sort of real funding.
However, when ex-military folk, like E.B. Misfit point to actual programs that are money pits, well, I kind of like that. She does it fairly frequently too.
Here’s an idea for Obama: If you want to find some wasteful spending assemble a team of of ex-military folk. Let them build up a list of programs that just don’t work. Then kill them. The programs, not the vets.
