Obama on His Way to Disarm the US
Obama, in a videotaped pledge revealed what he though about US defense program.
The video is available on YouTube as well.
In this videotape, he revealed that he wanted to reallocate the defense funds to other welfare programs.
Caucus for Priorities, a lobbying group was so impressed with such a plan that it guided 10,000 members to Obama.
Obama's main aim seems to slash nuclear and convention weapons.
The idea of this defense cut, along with his temper, is incredible.
Let us have a look at what he said in that video tape.
"I'm the only major candidate who opposed this war from the beginning; and as president, I will end it...
" "Second, I will cut tens of billions of dollars in wasteful spending.
I will cut investments in unproven missile defense systems.
I will not weaponize space.
I will slow our development of future combat systems...
I will institute an independent defense priorities board to ensure that the Quadrennial Review is not used to justify unnecessary defense spending.
" "Third, I will set a goal for a world without nuclear weapons.
To seek that goal, I will not develop nuclear weapons; I will seek a global ban on the production of fissile material; and I will negotiate with Russia to take our ICBMs off hair-trigger alert, and to achieve deep cuts in our nuclear arsenal.
" While Osama is planning a nuclear attack on America and countries like Iran and North Korea are a nuclear threat to us, Obama decision for a cut in defense budget seems to be illogical.
Our budget, needless to say is already quite low and this decision of Obama will just make our country feel more unsecured without proper funds availability.
