If that's the capability, why is it nonsensical? And when do we have enough armaments? Is there a number of missiles and planes and bombs and subs that will do the trick?

It was this kind of thoughtless rhetoric that we heard when Carter was trying to get elected. Liberals didn't understand (and still don't, apparently) that there is no quantitative metric; it is necessary to consider the quality of weapons systems.

A mainstay of our weapons systems for the last 50 years has been the tank. Now, tanks are relatively unimportant. You can't just look at the NUMBER of weapons.


Oh, great white warrior..........why not? It seems to work for everything else. And don't bother to come back with some mystic explanation.........my poor liberal brain wouldn't get it in any case.
