Did you guys hear Obama taking a talking point straight out of Paul's playbook? He's downsizing the military to make a more "lean" fighting force, saying it's not going to hurt national defense. He said there is no reason to have a military so huge to fight two fronts at once.

What say you guys?

 

[trey4sports]

no, he's just trying to make a good political move in general.

Obama is just pretending to be anti-war again

 

[Svenskar_för_Ron_Paul]

No he's not. But hey, Ron Pauls ideas are good, why shouldn't he ''use'' them?

 

[Tax the Fed]

Californians for Ron Paul in the general election electoral college will be a huge threat to NObama imho.

obama isnt dumb he probably has strategies set up in the event of whichever candidate gets the nomination..

 

[Paulitics 2011]

He did this in 2008 too. Don't kid yourself.

 

[wide awake]

The fact of the matter is that these cuts do not represent an actual reduction in overall defense spending, only a reduction in planned increases.

 

[ItsTime]

it is time for him to pretend to be anti-unconstitutional wars again.

"Anti-war crowd. Please don't go over to Paul...please!!" That's what I read...

 

[libertarian4321]

Obama knows he has to start at least pretending to make cuts somewhere. He sure as Hell won't touch social welfare programs, so the military is the obvious choice for him to make.

this is just to appease voters in the upcoming general election . he would do another 360 after reelected no doubt .
