Obama v. GOP

In this article the GOP republican candidates discuss cuts in our military and what is considered OK in deporting illegal immigrants. On the military cuts Perry goes as far as saying, "If Leon Panetta (Obama's Pentagon chief) is an honorable man, he should resign in protest." This is a ridiculous claim. Considering the fact that our primary enemy (Osama Bin Laden) has been eradicated, as of now in times of economic peril we should be taking that money and investing it in the people, not in the people joining the military. Mitt Romney stated that these cuts can potentially save us 1 trillion dollars. Talk about feeding the pig, that is 1/15 of our national debt. Doesn't seem like much but it helps. These candidates, with the exception of Ron Paul, seem like they are just trying to attack Obama rather than find actual solutions to our problems, while completely negating the fact that it was their people in Congress that has voted down almost every bill that Obama has proposed, making it extremely hard for him to change anything. I can respect the truth, that's why I like Ron Paul. To these other guys, it seems more like they are just trying to play the politics game and point fingers at Obama, rather than tell the truth and run on principle. Obama may be evil, but in politics, until someone changes things, you settle for the lesser of the two. In this case that is Obama.
