What is repugnant, TP? That our enemies will have to work harder to gather the info on our weapons systems?

And BTW....Did you notice this in the WP article?

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Rumsfeld's memo made clear that the Missile Defense Agency director -- a three-star position currently filled by Air Force Lt. Gen. Ronald Kadish -- will be in charge of shepherding the programs through their experimental phases. Once deemed ready for procurement, the plan is to turn control of the weapons over to the Army, Navy or Air Force. At this point, they would be subject to normal oversight procedures. <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

What is repugnant is the urgent need for missile defense in the first place. If it wasn't for Clinton selling out our missile tech to the chicoms, we could afford a modest approach to missile defense. But, Clinton has reduced our advantage by a few decades, and now we gots to hurry up and get our advantage back.
