As a Liberal, I don't support this.... most of us probably wouldn't.   However, cuts like these are the outcome of the successful demand for smaller govt, and reduced spending, that is the flagship issue of Conservatives.   I certainly recognize the risks of military service, and the sacrifices made.... and really regret this is happening myself.

But really, it's time to pay the piper.   Conservatives have successfully demanded reduced entitlement programs, less taxes, etc. Now that the outcome of these cuts is appearing in real people's lives... not just rhetorical flourishes from politicians.... we are about to see how it feels to live with the outcome of all that political posturing.

I think instances like this that may cause many Conservatives to embrace a more moderate stance, and reconsider whether they want to press forward with their agenda.   The imposition of drastic across the board cuts in federal spending are looming at the end of the year.
