It is tough to do it right when you get hit and then find that Clinton
cut:

709,000 REGULAR (ACTIVE DUTY) PERSONNEL.

293,000 RESERVE TROOPS.

EIGHT STANDING ARMY DIVISIONS.

20 AIR FORCE AND NAVY AIR WINGS WITH 2,000 COMBAT AIRCRAFT.

232 STRATEGIC BOMBERS.

19 STRATEGIC BALLISTIC MISSILE SUBMARINES WITH 3,114 NUCLEAR WARHEADS ON
232
MISSILES.
500 ICBMs WITH 1,950 WARHEADS.

FOUR AIRCRAFT CARRIERS AND 121 SURFACE COMBAT SHIPS AND SUBMARINES PLUS
ALL
THE
SUPPORT BASES, SHIPYARDS, AND LOGISTICAL ASSETS NEEDED TO SUSTAIN SUCH A
NAVAL
FORCE.

Remember when he "cut the size of government"?

I guess Clinton never planned on attacking a nation that never threatened
the
U.S. based on WMD that they never had.

No, he just attacked a nation that never threatened the US (that whole
series of former-Yugoslavia operations), based largely upon assurances from
Euro leaders it was *really* necessary, and thereby committed us to
open-ended engagements that are *still* sucking the life from the various
military branches, especially the Army (which is still playing the whole
SFOR and KFOR game, with SFOR now extending some seven YEARS past the date
that Clinton originally promised us would mark the end of that game). I
guess this is another example of your forgetting or not recognizing any
events that occured post VE day?

BTW, CBS News (not usually counted among the big Bush supporting
institutions) had a rather interesting little blurb the other evening,
regarding what Saddam is allegedly telling tales about while in captivity,
amongst which was mentioned his "WMD plans". Odd, huh? And as to threatening
the US, what do you call an assasination attempt on a former US President?
WMD they never had? You also must have missed the bit about a sarin binary
round going off a month or two back...
