Murtha Calls for Cuts in DoD Budget

This is no surprise. Anyone with eyes can see that the defense budget is wasteful, bloated, and not serving the current security needs of the country.

It's also refreshing that he wants to bring the "emergency wartime supplementals" back into the regular budget process, as well as noting that the defense procurement process is broken.

Of course, he also gets on his high horse about reinstating the draft, where I have mixed emotions.
