'AMERICA'S STRENGTH'

Romney Says He'd Boost Military Budget

DES MOINES -- Mitt Romney said Friday said that as president, he would increase the nation's military budget $50 billion to $60 billion a year "in order to demonstrate America's strength to the world."

In an appearance at the Fort Des Moines Museum, Romney touched briefly on his Thursday speech on faith in public life, but he told reporters he could not judge how effective it had been in blunting the criticism of his Mormon religion from some Christian conservatives.

It was not a political address," Romney insisted.
