The "defense cut" falsehood from The Washington Post and Robert Kagan - Glenn Greenwald - Salon.com

While we are on the subject of lying (previous post) we may as well acknowledge that, of course, Fox "News" and that, Colonel of Chicken Hawks, Robert Kagan are lying about Obama's supposed cut in defense spending. Like I said before and I will say it again, if a Republican says it, it is more than likely bull shit.



The "defense cut" falsehood from The Washington Post and Robert Kagan - Glenn Greenwald - Salon.com: "The Obama administration has given the Pentagon a $527 billion limit, excluding war costs, for its fiscal 2010 defense budget, an official with the White House’s Office of Management and Budget said Monday.
If enacted, that would be an 8 percent increase from the $487.7 billion allocated for fiscal 2009, and it would match what the Bush administration estimated last year for the Pentagon in fiscal 2010."
