You make these ridiculous assertions without any facts to back them up. There are plenty of facts. The most important function of our government is (or at least, it should be) the defense of the nation. Yet, after 8 years under Clinton, 8 years of successive military budget cuts, we are apparently putting off dealing with NK because it will stretch us too thin to deal with NK & Iraq at the same time. At least, according to liberals. If liberals had their priorities straight, we wouldn't have had this problem. But we've had a decade of liberal rule, and it has seriously and adversely affected our military. Don't you agree, even as a liberal, that we should prioritize defending the country? The American military was in no danger of falling apart under Clinton except in the fantastical nightmares of the Right. Norman Schwarzkopf disagreed with you last week on Hardball. According to him, Clinton left the military in "terrible condition".
