Defense hawk John Cornyn admits the defense cuts will not actually "cut" the budget, but their spending will still rise ...

http://www.cnn.com/2013/02/25/politics/budget-republicans/index.html?hpt=hp_t2

"Sen. John Cornyn of Texas said he plans to make the case to other Republicans and the public that despite warnings from the Pentagon that the mandated cuts will be devastating, the overall amount of defense spending will actually still rise."

Isn't that one of the signs of the Apocalypse? That a REPUBLICAN admits that "spending cuts" for Defense doesn't mean that their spending will actually go down???
