Feldstien's increase military spending argument

In Martin Feldstien argues that increase in defense spending would help the economy in his article , Defense Spending would be Great Stimulus.
The Department of Defense is preparing for spending cuts due to the economy. Obama argues more spending for public works, like highways, would help the economy. President Eisenhower signed the Federal-Aid Highway act of 1956 that lead to the nation's highway system. Feldstien argues that defense spending sould increase as long with spending for public works. Increase in defense spending will employ people building new equipment. Alone with spending on equipment, Feldstien also argus for lax in recuitment standards to help the youth get employed.

The troops are coming home! The troops are victorious!

I have good news, General Petraeus are calling for up to 8,000 in troop withdrawal. After Petraeus recommended troops to be withdrawn from Iraq's western region of Anbar Province, Iraq's security forces took control of Anbar Province. Petraeus feels confident in recommeding that troop withdrawals because the surge is working. Including Anbar Province, Iraqi Security Forces have control of 14 of 18 of their provinces.

Why do we need a missile defense system

During the recent conflict between Russia and Georgia, Russia fired a short range ballistic missile at Georgia. This act demonstrated the need for a missile defense system. Opponent of missile defense system would argue that America should use negotiations instead. Let me think about this:

• I think there was a cease-fire called. 
  
• If a cease-fire was called, the why was Russia's tanks still rolling in to Russia?
  
• Ooh, ooh, I know, negotiations didn't work.
  
• So if negotiations don't work, do we use force or do we be victims and ask the world to have sympathy on us?
  

I prefer the former. As a nation, America has a right to defend herself. America is not the only nation that is going to have missile defense system. 

Seeing the Russian aggression brought back dark memories form the past. So Poland sign a missile defense system deal with the U.S. to develop a missile defense system in Poland. As a support of missile defense system, I urge to support John McCain because he supports missile defense system.
