Yeah, 99% of the DoD's budget falls under "discretionary", not "mandatory". So?

You can't just go around looking at ~20% of the federal budget and calling it >50%, or it will be simply impossible to have a rational discussion with you.

Read the tabloids if you like, but cross-check it with the New York Times.
