Panetta warns of 'disaster' from defense cuts

Worrying about cuts in his retirement, no doubt.

Enough military spending already. The country is broke now because of it.

"BILLIONS for warfighters in Afghanistan would be subject to the cuts"

Pssst. Someone should tell him <whispering>, "the US is slowly LEAVING Afghanistan and won't be needing them in Afghanistan".

Maybe it is time for USA to STOP its never-ending war-monger philosophy !!

Panetta is a lying sack of dump who needs to be removed from the Pentagon. Gates, originally appointed by Bush, was a better SecDef than this clown, who is more Bush's type.

What disgusting tripe. We need to cut "Defense" spending (i.e., waste) about 80%.

There was once a country that had a choice between 'guns or butter.' They chose guns and we all know how well that turned out!

What does Defense cuts have to do with Panetta's retirement FOOL

I guess you want to weaken our defense capabilities while our enemies are building up theirs. Check what China, Russia Iran and N. Korea are doing toward defense
Why are Liberals so stupid
GET LOST COMMIE

In case you don't know MILITARY and DEFENSE spending are 2 different unites of government and are 2 different budgets.
We are talking about DEFENSE SPENDING THAT IS DIFFERENT THEN MILITARY SPENDING

Fact remains we will never be totally out of the Middle East There will be troops stationed there as there are troops stationed all aroun the world.
I guess you never served or know how the military works to protect those in America

Cut all military spending and defense spending is still too must!

The US NEEDS the BEST DEFENSE CAPABILITIES in the world If not America will be at risk for attack.
Simple deduction

No worries. If elected, Romney will save US taxpayers billions by outsourcing defense to overseas contractors.

the US spends over $700 billion on defense every year.
more than 4 times any other country on the planet.
.
they really can't take a little cut?
they prefer to cut services like meals on wheels and VA services?
really?
.
wtf?!?!?!?
