Show proof Clinton "destroyed" the military.

The best proof is the Democrats' own statements.

When Clinton took office, Pentagon policy had ALWAYS (as since WWII) been that we should be able to "Win 2 and Hold 2" -- meaning Win 2 large-scale wars and hold two others. Today, Democrats are suggesting we can't deal with Iraq, Afghanistan and NK at the same time (that would be 1 large scale and two lesser). That is proof enough.

However, the most inarguable statement comes from Norman Schwarzkopf:

"Regarding the U.S. defense policy under the Clinton administration, Schwarzkopf said that threats to the United States by other nations are not over, but the United State's ability to handle a threat is diminished because our armed forces have been reduced by 60 percent since the Gulf War."

I don't think it is possible to have better proof than this.
