President Obama Wants Leaner Military

President Obama wants to trim the fat from the Pentagon’s budget. His plan, which was unveiled yesterday, imagines a much smaller military, only capable of “one major conventional war at a time.” The news played big in San Diego, which has a huge military presence. But the Union-Tribune says the city would likely be safe from cuts because “Asia, special operations troops and technology” are major components of the president’s new vision.
