I'm just shocked,

that Chuck Hagle, (R)-Nebr, Obama's choice for Sec of Defense, is being demonized by FOX/Repubs, and the whole military industrial complex. The bullet and bomb builders aren't gonna see Bush-era type profits if we aren't constantly at war, somewhere, as per Pub foreign policy. Hagle agrees we gotta trim the HUGE, bloated military budget, as part of general cost cutting, and has drawn the ire of Citizens United, (the 'corporations are people' wing of the Repub party), where billionaire 'defense' contractors can spend part of their fortunes trying to buy public opinion. Cutting back on military spending? Wow, what a concept, that the right-wing is fighting, tooth and nail, as they would much rather would much rather cut teachers and education.
