A brief perusal though the LP website does not indicate that one of their beefs with our current leaders is our defense budget. While they advocate getting out of Iraq, they aren't exactly pacifists.

Also, "tough on national defense" is code for "lets have an interventionalist foreign policy" as well as "lets spend a fuckton of taxes on deploying troops all over the world in support of that policy."
I frequent that site a lot, and one comment made by a guy fits this perfectly: we are for national defense, not for international offense, which is what being "strong on national defense" means in political jargon. Seriously i mean wtf @ that phrase anyways, what politician would say he is "weak on national defense" or "against defending our country."
