Much of the technology you bring up are the result of decades of work, ranging back to Bush Sr., Reagan, and beyond. As usual, you rush to give Clinton most of the credit, when in reality he was actively deprioritizing most of those military projects by cutting spending.

How ignorant you are...the JDAMs in the 1991 war were laser based. During cloudy days they were useless. Pilots had to light up a target and endanger themselves in the process. Tomahawks were guided by terrain recognition. Today? GPS guidance systems for both, approved by Clinton. The Predator program, first weaponized UAV, was STARTED by Clinton in 1995...in 1991, 5% of ordinance dropped on Iraq was JDAM. In Iraq? 80%...thank you mr clinton. And there is so much more he did with SF and Delta Force expansion.

You are so stuck in your hatred for this man you have to dismiss the good things he did to some sinister motive. How does a man of faith become so cynical and jaded? Is it a failure of his faith or the man himself?
