More whining and cry-baby antics from McConnell and the right, how unexpected
Democrats still have the senate, the filibuster, and the veto. The right can act like little children all they want, the left are still running the show

You are correct...most of the spending is offense spending. We can make do with 20% of the current budget for defensive purposes.
