Barney Frank Wants To Cut Spending
Really. Of course, it’s all military spending
A panel commissioned by Rep. Barney Frank (D-Mass.) is recommending nearly $1 trillion in cuts to the Pentagon’s budget during the next 10 years.
The Sustainable Defense Task Force, a commission of scholars from a broad ideological spectrum appointed by Frank, the House Financial Services Committee chairman, laid out actions the government could take that could save as much as $960 billion between 2011 and 2020.
I’m shocked.
And they’re calling it a Sustainable Defense Task Force?
Orwell just twitted, “Well played, Barney Frank. Doubleplusgood.”
“Sustainable Defense Task Force?”
Yeah. Twenty thousand used Ford Escorts with “TANK” stenciled on the sides.
