Since when has either party ever cut military spending? I wish Dems were as cool as you say.

Exactly. I was looking this up and only saw a couple of failed attempts at cutting military budgets since the 80s.

One such "cut" was only increasing defense spending by 4% instead of 10%.

Clinton/Gore.

Also the only time the US had a budget surplus (1998-2001) in recent times.

Thanks so much. I was positive I was missing something there.
