Obama's "Remaking America" Plan

Let me see if I have this right... We are gutting back on Research and Development projects for our Defense Department and Military at the direction of Rep. Barney Franks and DoD Sec. Robert Gates. Barney wanted to cut 25% from the Defense Budget for next year, so Sec. Gates simply picked the biggest targets on his desk - the USAF F-22 Raptor, the USAF C-17A, the Army Defense Modernization System (Mods to their Bradleys and Abrams Tanks) Our Missile Defense System scaled back, no new destroyers for the Navy, and a new military communications satellite will be scaped also. Rep John Murtha, D-Pa. said the proposals were "an important and long overdue attempt to balance want and need at the Defense Department". (I wonder if he thought like that when the DoD pulled something he needed for survival when he wore his US Marine uniform?)

Now the reason I bring this up is because I find it alarming that while we have either scaled back, or made cuts in our 2010 Defense the Iranians, N. Koreans, Russians, and Chinese Governments are building up their Military, even Japan and Viet Nam are included. In fact Russia has just bought several Drones from Israel's "Israeli Aeronautical Institute (IAI) that are from United States technology we shared with Israel during the 1980's under Reagan. The Iranians and N. Koreans are building ICBM Missiles as fast as they can, China and Russia are rebuilding their Navies and Air Forces, Japan is building a Radar Missile Defense System out of fear of N. Korea. Viet Nam has just bought two Deisel Powered Submarines from Russia. What is going on?
　
Oh sure, Sec. Gates has said that we only need 187 F-22 Raptors, but gave the go ahead to increase production on the F-35 JSF Fighter Plane, which is far inferior to the F-22. Also on the chopping block was the C-17 Globemaster III which is reputed to be the most flexible cargo aircraft in the the USAF Airlift Fleet, gone! Our Misille Defense System was second to none on detecting and destroying in-coming ICBM's (It has been tested, and it works!). The Abrams and Bradley fighting duo are/were in need of upgrades to remain superior for another 20 years. The Navy Zumwalt-class ships feature a unique and stealthy tumble-home hull form, electric drive propulsion and new radars. In addition to missile cells, the destroyers also will mount two 155-millimeter (6.1-inch) advanced gun systems, the largest guns designed to be fitted on a new warship since the 1950s.

All Gone, or cut back! Why? For Obama and Geithner to give the funds to the Automaker Unions? So AIG and other executives can recieve their bonuses and take free trips to exotic locations at Taxpayer expense? Obama has already said he wants to shrink the Military, thus the program cuts, thus a weakened US National Security System. Next comes the 2nd Amenment and Private Gun control and Socialized Medicine. Obama has already adopted a new flag for his made-over America, so get ready...
