True Majority -- Not $1 more

There’s a lot of talk in Congress about how to cut the U.S. budget these days. But there’s one place that nobody in Congress or the White House wants to talk about belt-tightening – the Pentagon.

Despite all the tough talk, neither the President nor the Congress are proposing to cut overall spending on war and weapons. In fact, BOTH parties are still talking about an INCREASE in spending for the Pentagon, which already gets more than 50% of all the money Congress votes on, and that doesn't even *count* the money for the actual wars.

If Congress is willing to cut stuff that Americans really need - like job training, home heating assistance, and research into clean energy - then EVERYTHING needs to be "on the table" for cuts.

That’s why we've launched the “Not $1 More” campaign - and we want YOU to sign on first. Tell Congress to ‘put the guns on the table’ and make the Pentagon live by the same budget rules as everyone else: Sign here to support Not $1 More.

2. Well at least Obama mentioned he realizes it needs to be "reviewed" which is

WAY more than most republicans will admit. He's got to see what a humongous black hole it is!

4. Let's hope he does review it

and makes the necessary cuts -- including bring all our troops home.
