He cleared that up on O'Reilly, ready? are you sitting? He said he didn't want to get rid of the Military, he said he wanted to reduce the military to the point that the Generals would wake up one day and say"hey the military is so small , what's the use " and then they would all go home.

You can't vote that logic in anywhere else but san fran

Why do rightwing talkshows pick isolated loons on the extreme left and put a spotlight on them to try and prejudice people against all the strong, sound, sensible ideas which from from left of center? Who cares about some pacifist in San Francisco? Or pacifist in San Antonio. Entire religiouns like the Quakers are pacifists. Whole countries in the Coalition Of The Willing don't even have militaries. So who cares?

You don't see liberal talkshows doing that. In fact, liberal talkshows like to invite on Republicans and have mature, factual chats and debates. That's what we need in America, not this silly nit-picking about a few scattered nuts.

The O'Reilly, Savage and Hannity type shows especially just seem to want to deceive and fan the flames of prejudice. It does this country harm. Meanwhile, the policies they stand for have been proven to not work. And those are big issues.
