Actually military cut-backs started with Bush Sr. after the Gulf War and the massive deficits he had to tackle. Many base-closings, etc. Clinton actually raised defense spending. I think you're Army guy is a Republican. They always gripe at Democrats. John Kerry is one Democrat who can change this. Notice McCain coming out against Bush's tax cuts? Hmm. I can still see a Kerry-McCain unification team. And your military friends will be 100% behind them.

It was Bush Sr. who gave the chinese the missle technology under the COCOM program February 26, 1989 President George Bush said in a press conference: "We will advance technology to China as much as we possibly can under what is known as the COCOM [Coordinating Committee for Multilateral Export Security Controls - COCOM] arrangement. There are some highly sensitive, highly sophisticated military technologies that I'm not even sure China is interested in, but that we are prohibited from exporting under the law. Having said that, we have exported some highly sophisticated technology to China, and as President, I want to continue to do that. And that will benefit the life of the average Chinese citizen." By 1991 Poppy began to regret the uses that China was putting the technology to and started to restrict the program. Clinton cancelled the program in 1994. You got the wrong guy, (which means you been listening to those "entertainers" with opinions instead of reliable sources. I hope you aren't getting your gold advice from them too. TP
