Poll: 78% of Swing State Voters agree with Secy Gates on cutting $145B from military budget (Obama, states)

[18Montclair]

Question is, does the GOP get it? If your going to cut everything, then nothing is sacrosanct-not even your precious war machine.

The same war machine Obama apparently takes a shine too now with that Libya farce.

A poll of 1,001 likely voters in fourteen battleground swing states, conducted April 2-4 by Luntz Global, found that 88 percent support taking action now to reform Social Security and Medicare. Likely voters view no area of the federal budget as off-limits, as 78 percent agreed with Defense Secretary Robert Gates’ recommendation to cut $145 billion in unnecessary defense spending.

Let them get through this budget Aunt Nancy was suppose to do 12 months ago and have finished 6 months ago.

The 2012 budget is going to open some eyes, if the Progressives think 60 billion is too painful.
That is all in the 2012 budget.
