the link below will provide a clear graph of the clinton defense budgets in constant dollars. couple it with the manpower graph in my previous post and you will have a much more accurate picture of the truth than whatever your sources are providing... d-n-i.net unclewest Still curious how another HUNDRED billion dollars in defense and a hundredfold increase in troops would have stopped 25 guys with box knives using passenger jets as missiles.
