Admiral Mullen is setting us up for deep defense cuts.

The above video is one in which Admiral Mullen states that the current budget situation is a risk to national security (I must add that this is the same Admiral that stated that Climate Change was a risk to national security....it seems that some will bow to the whims of their superiors no matter what the rank)...

The point of all this is...he's setting up the country for massive defense cuts. 

I wondered why they would choose a certain Marine General over a more accomplished rival for Commandant.

I wondered why the SecDef would make such a forceful show of talking about future defense budgets and the role of the Marine Corps.

I wondered why the Acquisition Chief would make a meeting with the defense sector such a high profile show.


Now we know.  Everyone is about to get gut punched. 

Remember you heard it here first.
