Obama's final Military Budget Numbers:  

"The Republican candidates who scorn President Obama for ravaging the military and strangling its cash flow should take a close look at his budget for 2017. Released Tuesday by the White House and the Pentagon, it falls only a few billion dollars short of the largest defense budget since the start of the century—and that slightly bigger budget was Obama’s as well."

"Comparing the eight years of George W. Bush’s base budgets and the eight years of Obama’s (including the one proposed today), Obama’s exceed Bush’s by a sum total of $816.7 billion ($4,121.2 billion for Obama’s two terms, $3,304.5 for Bush’s)."
