It's shallow to conclude that someone who adds to the military base budget is pro military spending? In the remainder of the article, Korb goes on to suggest many different programs which are not necessary in today's world. Even with his trillion cut, it still gets us back to where we were pretty much during Bush. The most outlandish number here is we spend HALF of the world's budget on military. I would like to think that someone who is really conservative, competent and sensible (forget progressive, cause I don't believe that one anymore) would look at THAT number and our debt and then conclude it needs to come down significantly. Even if you are a hawk. It's just common sense.
