Next and more important, what does the Governor of Florida (Charlie Crist) have to do with the US military expenditure?
I'll view this as a new learning experience for me.

these are for 2010
Funding Highlights:
• Provides $533.7 billion for the Department of Defense base budget in 2010, a four-percent
increase over 2009.
• Includes $75.5 billion in supplemental appropriations for 2009 and $130.0 billion for 2010 to
support ongoing overseas contingency operations, while increasing efforts in Afghanistan and
drawing down troops from Iraq responsibly.
• Supports a transparent budget process, which simultaneously and separately requests
estimated base budget and overseas contingency operations costs.

i can see this is turning into a big debate. that is not what i was trying to do. i can only express my thoughts about what i see happening where i am living and working. that is what i was pursuing, i wanted to express my thoughts. boy did i ever open up a can of worms. i think i will stick to my poems and humor. even though i'm not that good.

Great. Then I'm going to close this. There are plenty of places to talk politics on the internet. Cigar Asylum is not one of them.

It couldnt be the case that your boss gave you a self-serving view of the budget in order to cover up waste and mismanagement.
