obama..takes care of our vets

figured this was as good a place as any regarding talk on defense. i read that romney said during the debate that the us navy is smaller than at any time since 1916, the air force since 1947. so, i did some looking.

shocking that romney wasn't quite correct. note in the article that the navy actually is slightly larger ship number wise than during bushes terms. also, does anyone, anyone think that our navy is less than what it should be? that it's 'weaker' than what we had pre-ww1? or that our air force is not as good as post ww2?? that anyone is at all a threat to not exceed, but even match our firepower? does romney, or anyone, pay any attention at all to what our military actually has? what it can do?
there's a reason no country has attempted to attack us since japan got suddenly completely stupid in 1941. no one, no one, can match us militarily. not enough get to half of what we've got. and good christ, the amount of weaponry we could quickly produce because of our industrial capability-it's insane.

which is why i have said all along that romney is incorrect regarding defense spending.
when are people going to sit down and actually look at where most of our federal dollars are going? when will our political 'leaders' do something about this?

probably never.
