Romney and his neocons want to change our Defense Dept. into the Offense Dept.

They want to pick a fight with half the world. Without paying for any of it again. The goal to starve the government until it is no more.
Easy choice, more wars or Peace for a change. I for one am sick of the middle east, each and every last one of them. You assholes are on your own
with this American.

Defense Department? A handy euphemism from which to launch wars of aggression in the name of "national defense."

Did you read the OP or did you just drop by to add a little right wing propaganda to the mix?

The War Department was re-named the Department of Defense in 1949. Republicans have bee pissed off ever since. The Neo-Cons would LOVE to call it the War Department again. Rmoney will keep America on a war footing - just like W did.
