This is probably the best example of the Republicans trying to throw around a bunch of BS and hope some of it sticks. It would be laughable if so many people didn't blindly believe them.
Oh, and Republicans complain that we're not spending enough money killing other people, then turn around and complain that we're spending too much money trying to provide health care and save the lives of our own citizens. Talk about priorities.
Inhofe is a disgraceful traitor to our country. Giving aid and hope to our enemies by falsely claiming that Obama is reducing the military budget.... and even worse, doing it while standing in a war zone where our solders lives are at risk. Inhofe's despicable actions are bordering on treason.
He is a disgrace to the office he holds, putting politics and lying before the best interests of our country and the soldiers who risk their lives for it.
Gutting the military? Spending less on cost-plus weapon systems that always over-run and are behind schedule and more on people and expanding the number of people in each service is gutting the military?
What a hypocrite! FCS (Future Cobat Systems), that bloated program will not help our troops in Irag and afghanistan, Spending on things that work now will and that's way Robert Gates is doing.
this guy is a nutbag....it is a 4% increase over 18 billion dollars more than gw bush...he is upset because programs from his state are being cut....more rnc misinformation and scare tactics.
Scary. People actually voted for this piece of shit. Typicla repuke fear mongering asshole. If this asscunt is an American, then I am ashamed to be one. Repukes need to do their own killing and dying. Hell, these pukes probably don't even do their own f%^king.
Your just another Fascist Republican that is spinning lies against the Libtard Democrats. The Fascist Dictator George W. Bush spent $513 billion dollars on 2 False-Flag Wars last years, and now Obama is spending $534 billion on the same artificially created wars of the U.S. Military Industrial Complex and the U.S. Federal Reserve Bank (privately owned central bank).
This whole video is a lie. The mil budget will increase equipment for operations like Afganistan. It's right wing morons spouting crapola like this that RUINS America.
It is unprecedented, we are going to change the budget to work for the soldier, not for some repuglican right wing industrial shit head familty to keep them in blue blood money.
When I 1st heard Inhofe, I thought an apology would follow. Now, Bachus of AL says there are 17 socialists in Congress. The stuttering, stupid Republican party is giving it their last dying gasps in an attempt to sway public opinion. Not working. The outright lies of Inhofe show desperation. He is attempting to scare us, as Cheney tried and Bachus is trying. These unprincipled people will do anything to regain power. We must remain united and guarded against these liars. We won, let's keep it.
How can Inhofe get away with bad-mouthing Obama in a war zone when American citizens were blackballed after badmouthing Bush in England at the begining of the Iraq invasion. The Dixie Chix are still shunned by country stations across the US because they had the courage to speak up when we were being led like sheep into an unnecessary war, a degrading of our Constitution & civil liberties & a rocketing natl debt. Whats the price for Inhofes unamerican, unpatriotic reading of the talking points?!
The real loser is the taxpayer. The military budget should have been savagely cut instead it was increased. A major failure for Obama and a major win for the military industrial complex.
What you're actually paying for is subsidised weapons used on children in Gaza, helicopters for Colombians to kill rebels and hundreds of new nuclear warheads to be added to the gigantic pile of existing ones.
Why not go back to selling War Bonds to pay for the two False-Flag Wars that were created by the US Military Industrial Complex with the collusion of the PRIVATELY OWNED US Federal Reserve Bank. Sell War Bonds to pay for wars outside the USA and stop BORROWING our Children's purchasing power away. When M3 (money supply) does not match economic growth you get INFLATION. Right now we are about to see HYPERINFLATION!
Only in the short-run. Food prices are inflating fast. The item sizes is getting smaller and the prices in going up. Fuel prices are slowly going back up after the oil oligopoly lowered prices around Christmas to artificially increase consumer spending. If M3 does not match the growth rate of the economy you either get inflation or deflation. Since were spend, spend, spending the US Federal Reserves money we will have hyperinflation in 2010. Were having a Bear Market rally.
Also, how long will cheap tricks like trying to sound credible by standing in front of some choppers on an airstrip in Afghanistan keep working on the millions of total morons in this country? Surely anyone with a functioning brain can see past this old propaganda technique.
He's a lying deceitful idiot! He's been in office too long. Apparently, he's too out of touch with modern technology to realize that facts as well as falsehoods (lies) can be corroborated. His lies will live on in cyberspace forever.
On what planet does a 4% increase in spending = gutting? This is the same old Republican bullshit. Trying to brainwash people by using fear into being on the side of their cronies who make a ton of money out of useless, ridiculously expensive toys that don't even work right. Obama is actually making us more safe by redirecting the money towards the men Inhofe supposedly cares about and the current wars we're fighting and away from crap the army doesn't need.
This really shows his ignorance...to my disappointment, Obama's defense budget is $15,000,000,000.00 greater than the last one by Bush!!!!????!!! Come on OK, you're smarter than to re-elect idiots like this!!!!!! or are you?
First the defense budget has not been cut. It has actually INCREASED from 513 billion to I believe 533 billion. Inhofe is deliberately spreading misinformation because he's pissed that one of the military contracts that is being cut is in Oklahoma.
The sad part, Senator, is I don't think you know how many of those guys you pretend to care about are on the welfare rolls you denounce. Men like you are on their way out. Even down here in the buckle of the Bible belt we know better. Keep the lies coming, it will only assist us.
Inhofe is an embarrassing idiot. HE's wrong on all counts. Afghanistan and Iraq war efforts HAVE THEIR OWN BUDGET. Nothing he says here is factual. The current defense budget is $21 BILLION dollars more than the defense budget under Bush. Just more disinformation from the bozo that denies global warming and wants to keep America safe for his Oil Company campaign donors. What a maroon.
he didn't get my vote. Too bad most of my fellow okies are mouth-breathing, uninformed, selfish, misguided fundies. They constantly vote on "hot-button" issues and can't even tell they are being screwed by the Repugnicant party.
Inhofe is a liar. The defense budget is being increased by 21 billion...so there's no cut. Maybe useless weapons systems that feed Inhofe's poltiical contributions are the real ox being gored here. Inhofe, just shut up and resign.
What a liar. The budget the Obama and Gates proposes is 21 million dollars MORE than Bush budget last year.
Even more appalling is that you have the nerve to pretend you are on the side of our military when your official record says otherwise. You voted NO for better armor, you voted NO for safer military vehicles, you voted NO for better health car for vets.
OK vets vote "no" on Inhofe. Just Google "Oklahoma vets" and "Inhofe" and take a look for yourself.
Have you no sense of shame? You deny the most obvious facts. It makes me wonder how and why the good people of Oklahoma keep sending you to represent them. I hope god will someday open your eyes to the truth.
What an f'n ass liar this Party of NO Inhofe is. I hope he gets voted out of office next time around.
You better apologize to the American People for your Lies Idiot Inhole. This is exactly why there will never be another Republican in the White House for decades to come, if ever.
Mr. Senator, you should be embarrassed for having this posted and having told outright lies. Sir, there is no "decrease" in military spending being proposed by the Obama Administration.
I don't agree with a great number of things that President Obama is proposing to do. However, where we disagree, we disagree based on the facts, not based on lies. Sir, there is nothing I despise more about our "leaders" than when they lie.
If this is really Imhoff's account, you might want to take this video off. It only makes him look stupid(er). The fact the approval rates of Republican legislators is falling is just illustrated by videos like this.
This is such bullshit!!...I want an apology...Obama and gates want to INCREASE THE MILITARY BUDGET and flat out lying like this is such stupidity. I want an apology and I want a correction.
The more you guys deliberately lie to us and try to obfuscate the reality of a Democratic President of the USA named Barack Hussein Obama, the more you just look more and more SHABBY. Get your facts and evidence right and THEN make your talking points.
Obama cut the defense budget? Look it up, Inofe. Geeze, you guys really ARE crazy. Leave town & take Rush with you.
You are either illiterate or a total liar. Statements such as this - and you have many - make all Oklahomans look bad. When it comes to politics I am humiliated to be from Oklahoma. To review:
Copied verbatim from the DOD Budget:
Funding Highlights:
• Provides $533.7 billion for the Department of Defense base budget in 2010, a four-percent
increase over 2009.
It says "four-percent increase." Why don't you try working WITH someone for a change?
You right wing Authoritarian liars are either getting crazier or your just soar losers. you are driving people away from your party when you act like this. People know you are lying!!!
The Senator can't believe what he says he heard today because he didn't hear it. Senator Inhofe lies so effortlessly he makes Bill Clinton look like a boy scout. What worthless trash these wing-nut neocons have become. So dishonest, so desperate, so completely pathetic.
How did this guy get elected? First of all, we're stopping production on the F-22 (of which we already have 192 samples fulfilling the original order) in favor of a better jet, the F-35. And like MadamS79 said below, Obama's military budget ($534 Billion) is greater than Bush's ($513 Billion). He really does a disservice to all honest Republicans by being a blatant liar.
I find the Republicans, for the most part, have nothing to say that is positive and focus on rhetoric that will get them elected in the next election. Politics as usual? This is not principle or ethics or honesty or responsibility, it's getting reelected. All parties better get out of that mindset.
Senator, honestly, do you just make this stuff up as you go along? I admit math is not my strong suit but ...well, see madameS79's comment. Even I can figure this one out.
I think we should fire all the pilots of those F-22s and hire all the subsidized pigs, and I mean real bigs because they are almost smart as dogs, in Inhofe's district and make them diamond studded jackets, bless them with pixie dust, and feed them the rest of all the money he requested in the last two spending bills.
Only somebody, like Jim Inhofe, who is dumb as a rock could call this a cut.
What do you expect, though, from a moron who thinks humans walked the earth with dinosaurs. There should be an IQ test required to be a senator. Then we could keep idiots like this guy from making decisions that affect me.
I won't bother with the name calling...I believe it's actually ignorance in your case, Senator. When you get home, and actually read this budget proposal ( by the Sec of Defense appointed by the previous Admin, no doubt ) I hope you stop and say "Oh."
This is yet another example of Republican cowardice. They hide behind troops. They hide behind ordinary tax-paying Americans. They hide behind Jesus Christ. All for the furtherance of a self-indulgent agenda. In this case, this clown is propping up super expensive, worthless technology not in the honest defense of this country or ONE American soldier. Rather, it's because he and many in his party are personally invested in this garbage. They are a wholly-owned by the defense industry.
Sir you are not a patriot. You are on foreign soil telling falsehoods about the President of the United States. Our government did not cut the defense budget but instead increased it 4% over Bush's budget of last year.
No one ever said that the redneck senator from Oklahoma could do math. Inhofe is an ass clown and a pathological liar. The Obama budget increases military spending by 21 billion over the last Bush budget. To bad the good folks of Oklahoma are stuck with this turd for another six years.
Inhoffe is either a lier or an idiot. The 2010 defense budget is $534B while Bush's 2009 defense budget was $513B. Hmmm sounds like an increase not "gutting the budget."
Hey, I'm a LONGTIME Republican, a Vietnam Veteran, and I say we don't need to CHEAT and LIE to win our points. The last Bush DOD budget was $513 Billion and Obama's DOD budget is to be $534 Billion. This is an INCREASE of $21 Billion. To assert otherwise means you are either 1) Stupid or 2) Lying and misrepresenting the FACTS. As a TAXPAYER, I heartily endorse Gate's proposals for Pentagon spending. We need a larger, stronger, smarter and more effective military. Not supported by idiots.
Im from Oklahoma, and I keep asking why this asshole keeps getting elected. Hes a lying piece of garbage. Hes done nothing to help our troops. He just uses them for photo-ops to trick the red necks around here.
i don't know if people like inhofe who get *easily* verifiable facts wrong are doing it on purpose because they are betting that people are too ignorant to question their lies or if they are truly stupid. either scenario is appalling and unacceptable. it's frightening how many liars/idiots are in positions of influence. thank goodness for smart people who read and pay attention. this clown ought to be ashamed of himself... and then resign!
Where is the Right's outrage over this treason compared to their outrage over the Dixie Chick's snafu? Where is Toby Keith's "Shut Up and Legislate" song to respond to this treason? The hypocrisy has evolved (no intelligent design evident here) to blatant sociopath rantings.
My wife and I used to think this man was just small, uneducated, narrow-minded. But he is a TRAITOR, spouting lies about our President from foreign soil. The Dixie Chicks were excoriated from every direction for saying they were embarrassed to hale from the same state as George W. Bush. This man is a U S Senator, and speaking as someone who wore the uniform of this country for 20 years, I am astounded . He is a liar and a traitor. He should never serve this country again!
Gates' new budget killed a cannon that would have been built in Inhofe's district. There's your story.
His comments about Obama "gutting" the military are untrue. The budget will increase $21B. He not only lied, but he attacked the president on a foreign policy issue while he was overseas.
This is just sad. Secretary Gates and President Obama want to invest in technologies that are useful to the fights that we're currently in. They want to add money for better armor for soldiers and vehicles and increase funding for the V.A. This shyster is just worried about Oklahoma defense contractors and is a disgrace to his state and the office he currently holds. Shame on you, Senator Inhofe. Answer me this: why is John McCain behind this if it is as you say, hmmm?
Sen. Inhofe, please check your math. The President's budget increases core DoD spending by $21 billion. That's billion, with a 'B'.
An increase in spending cannot be characterized as 'defense cuts.' Are you complaining that Sec. Gates has reallocated his budget to meet our actual needs instead of the extremely unlikely edge cases? Really? You don't want our military prepared for its actual mission? You'd rather it be prepared for some cold-war era science fiction mission? Really?
Inhofe attacks President from foreign soil. That is not a wise thing to do and is never done. Inhofe is lying in what he says. Obama defense budget for 2010 is $234 billion. The last Bush defense budget was $212 billion. Why does he lie. Most importantly - THE IRAQ AND AFGHANISTAN WAR BUDGET ARE SEPARATE FROM THE OVERALL DEFENSE BUDGET . Why do the Republicans lie to the American people? Why do they support Osama Bin Laden with their unAmerican attacks?
And, having read a lot of the prior comments, it's interesting how many anti-Obama posts are from people that haven't bothered to check the accuracy of what Inhofe even says. Guess that says a lot about them.
Apparently Inhofe knows as little about the budget as he does about global warming. Or perhaps just prefers lying about both. As to the defense budget: it increases DOD spending by $21 Billion...and Obama is also increasing spending in Afghanistan. For any right-wing Republican to be even bringing up Afghanistan is amazing to me.
please watch this to get the real story about military cuts. This man is a shill for the militart industrial complex, he doesnt care about your state or family
who was behind the dead hijackers or as theyre known 'operation northwoods whackos', theyre getting exactly what they wanted - bleed america dry chasing down a non descript enemy hyped by the military indu$trial complex...soviet union fell apart this exact same way..and so will america...the war on al qaeda is a fraud whatreallyhappened [dot] com
What a joke. Hype. No reason to even be in afghanistan. The elite media fingered the bin laden boogeyman, like they sat on their asses and let dubya pull off his 'saddam did 9/11, wmd' fraud. Go to the FBIs ten most wanted terrorist list. Bin Ladens profile doesnt even have a single mention of 911!!! Why? In their own words: no evidence linking him to the events. The only verified audio of him, he denied this attacks!..More elite media b.s.
Not that the good Senator is a military commander, nor most of the other elected Republicans. What about Sen. Webb (D. VA) or is he really a conservative. Then you have President Eisenhower, he would hardly fit in today's Republican party. He would no have a problem with both of these wars/ occupations.
Wow. This is a sitting Senator criticizing his own President on foreign soil--and in a country with active combat operations. If a democrat did this Limbaugh would call for their resignation. Laughable.
Pissquick Inhofe is a complete nutbag fundie lunatic. It's fun to see all the whackadoodles in their mom's basements going on and on about how Obama is a communist, or a secret mooslim, or other nonsense. That butthurt they have is great to see.
The act, also known as the "GI Bill of Rights," has been criticized by President George Bush and Presidential nominee John McCain because of its high cost and the possibility of negative retention effects, but has wide public support regardless. Sen. Inhofe's decision drew the ire of many veterans groups[39] and he has not publicly stated why he withdrew support on the same day 100 student-veterans rallied on the steps of the Capitol for the bill's passage.
Inhofe is full of shit. He killed the GI Bill reform
which would have help out veterans.
Inhofe, an initial supporter of Senator Jim Webb's "Post-9/11 Veterans Educational Assistance Act of 2008," was the first member of Congress to withdraw support for the legislation.[38]
China and India are investing heavily on their military and the technology that supports it's strength. WHY are we, the one who is ahead of everyone, not doing something to maintain our lead? You say the military is worthless and not worth the money? Think again, the internet was created through military research and budget. The military is the head of innovative technology and medical research.
Obama cutting the military budget in a time of war... and this is shocking why? Was it not obvious that he would do everything he is doing? He is a communist, he is the US Gorbie.
Inhofe tells it like it is! Obama is clearing out our Treasury like it's his checking account, while cutting defense spending while we're at war.
North Korea is shooting off a warhead that can reach the U.S. Iran is close to developing nuclear weapons. The Russians, Chinese, and Islamists are all paying attention to America's newfound weakness.
Our government's first responsibility to its citizens is to PROTECT US, not to confiscate our money and spread it around to bankers and union leaders.
its cutting the f22's at like 50 something i cant remember the number...it cut a new fleet of helicopters for president obama ....just bought 2 spy satellites so in reality he is cutting unnecesary spending...and with his plan to be out of iraq soon we are going to see it even out since the war in iraq wont be sucking money out of places it really shuld be used for
"The USA has a strong military but if we cut now then other country's militaries might become stronger then ours in the long run?"
PreCurSed: Get the fact that there IS NOT a cut in the military budget, but an increase. We better watch out or Andora's going to have a bigger, better military than us.

Obongo is just aping what the white man does. That is, speak english, wear clothes, shave, and run for president. You idiots put a coon in charge of the country. Now eat it.
He is only mad because Oklahoma is home to a major defense contract that the restructuring puts on the chopping block. It HAS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO with national security. It has to do with employers in Oklahoma.
Billions and billions of reckless spending on all kinds of things without proper oversight, without anyone even having read the spending bills, and CUTS to our military budget during a time of war?
Obama is a threat to us all, and should be pressured to step down immediately so we can have a president who takes national security and our Constitution seriously.
sounds like he is reading straight off of Republican talking points. I wonder who emailed him what to say because surely this man is lucky to be able to speak much less think.
These defense cuts were recommended by Defense Secretary Robert Gates because the old weapons aren't useful in today's wars. Inhofe punts on that one.
P.S. Why did Inhofe oppose improving G.I. benefits in 2008? (google Post-9/11 Veterans Educational Assistance Act of 2008)
The Weekly Standard has a letter sent to Barack Obama from Republican, Independent and Democrat senators, urging him not to make CUTS to our missile defense capabilities...
They point out the timing of the planned announcement... being directly after North Korea launched a test showing they had the capability of launching a missile that could reach parts of the United States of America. The planned announcement is also coming after 57 % polled by Rasmussen favors a military response to North Korea's missile launch. The letter was signed by Senators Joseph I. Lieberman, Jon Kyl, Mark Begich, Lisa Murkowski, Jeff Sessions and James Inhofe
Not true, Defense Secretary Robert Gates says we are cutting OLD defense systems, which is a good thing, since Bush couldn't win Iraq with our OLD weapons systems.
OLD man Inofre would like us to use sticks and stones.
This is correct neither in grammar nor in fact. I live in Oklahoma. I did not vote for James Inhofe. So far, nothing he has said or done while in office has been remotely similar to the way I think.
You must be very lonely. How can Oklahoma elect someone like this. When poor people vote directly against their own interests then the only conclusion is that they are really dumb and Mr., Inhofe knows this and appeals directly to their fears. Pathetic on both sides.
How many missions have been flown by F22s in Afghanistan? -0-
Inhofe, as usual, has no idea what he is talking about. The pentagon is fast-tracking needed equipment like MRAPs that will protect soldiers from the roadside bombs that account for +60% of US casualties.
As an Iraq War Veteran I would like to say that this ignorant Okie is putting American defense contractors before American soldiers and wrapping his venality in a flag.
You know, American soldiers going into Iraq lacking basic equipment while Boeing's idiotic Osprey pet-project was given billions and billions of dollars.
How dare this guy pretend to support the troops in Afghanistan. Soldiers get the money or "defense" contractors get the money... he sides with contractors.
This guy is clueless. Cutting FCS, oh noes, we all going to die. Guess he missed the part where helicopter spending (for Afghanistan) was being increased.
You can't afford to sustain the defence spending that occurred under the Bush administration. It boils down to this: it's either the economy or the military-industrial complex.
Everyone knows Obama will cause the sun to explode. So what's a few hundred thousand US troops? Better put jam in your pockets, general, 'cause we're all gonna be toast!

First the defense budget has not been cut. It has actually INCREASED from 513 billion to I believe 533 billion. Inhofe is deliberately spreading misinformation because he's pissed that one of the military contracts that is being cut is in Oklahoma.

The current defense budget is $21 BILLION dollars more than the defense budget under Bush. Just more disinformation from the bozo that denies global warming and wants to keep America safe for his Oil Company campaign donors. What a maroon.

You are either illiterate or a total liar. Statements such as this - and you have many - make all Oklahomans look bad. When it comes to politics I am humiliated to be from Oklahoma. To review:
Copied verbatim from the DOD Budget:
Funding Highlights:
• Provides $533.7 billion for the Department of Defense base budget in 2010, a four-percent
increase over 2009.
It says "four-percent increase." Why don't you try working WITH someone for a change?

An increase in spending cannot be characterized as 'defense cuts.' Are you complaining that Sec.

You'd rather it be prepared for some cold-war era science fiction mission? Really?

$500 million more in the budget than last year to increase capacity for more helicopters a capability in urgent demand in Afghanistan.
Grow our special operations capabilities, increase personnel by more than five percent and buy more special forces-optimized aircraft.
So yeah... this guy is a liar and an idiot.

How many missions have been flown by F22s in Afghanistan? -0-
Inhofe, as usual, has no idea what he is talking about. The pentagon is fast-tracking needed equipment like MRAPs that will protect soldiers from the roadside bombs that account for +60% of US casualties.

As an Iraq War Veteran I would like to say that this ignorant Okie is putting American defense contractors before American soldiers and wrapping his venality in a flag.
You know, American soldiers going into Iraq lacking basic equipment while Boeing's idiotic Osprey pet-project was given billions and billions of dollars.
How dare this guy pretend to support the troops in Afghanistan. Soldiers get the money or "defense" contractors get the money... he sides with contractors.

This guy is clueless. Cutting FCS, oh noes, we all going to die. Guess he missed the part where helicopter spending (for Afghanistan) was being increased.

You can't afford to sustain the defence spending that occurred under the Bush administration. It boils down to this: it's either the economy or the military-industrial complex.

Wingnut idiocy alive and well.
ABL is a turd
FCS is another turkey
VH-71 taxpayer ripoff
John McCain supports this plan, so does the JCS and Gates is not a liberal by any stretch.
Good job Inhofe, appealing to the lowest common denominator.
