In argument with right-winger

Are there any examples of Kerry voting to increase military funding or to approve new weapons systems? Please provide desperately needed evidence of Kerry being pro-military. Secondly, this guy claims that Kerry has never had a single piece of his legislation passed. Is this true?

Kerry was in a war so he is careful about military aggression. He didnt vote against funding for intelligence - only for a so called "slush" fund for the cia to conduct any activities it essentially wanted.
He is a wealthy man who went anyway - thought it was his duty.
Another wealthy person we know went out of his way to avoid it.
I dont there should be an argument with any bush supporter over this.

has always voted to cut military/defense funding and never to increase it. The argument isn't whether or not Kerry served. He thinks it's irresponsible for Kerry to be cutting defense under any circumstances.

They "lost" $1 TRILLION of taxpayer dollars. That's our money. (Well, not really ours, but "they" think it is.)

On edit: In fact, send him this link:

and it will hurt Kerry politically if we don't be honest about it and clearly explain WHY the pentagon budget deserves to be reduced.

This is from the thread in sangh0's post below:

Fact Check: John Kerry has supported $200 billion in intelligence funding over the past seven years – a 50 percent increase since 1996.
