'Obama legacy' my ass. There was this thing called the sequester, AKA the Budget Control Act imposed by a GOP Congress, that mandated less of an increase in Defense spending.

Good luck finding money in the teeth of the tax cuts that will explode the deficit without addressing either infrastructure or Defense needs.

Count on the GOP for a 'free lunch' by proposing to put it all on the credit card. And count as well on nut-job righties engaging in revisionist history and blaming it all on Obama.

"You can fantasize about spending as much money as you want, but the reality is we won't be able to fix our military readiness problems without repealing the Budget Control Act," Smith told CNN. "So far the Republicans haven't been able to show us any plan to do that."
