when people look back at the Bush administration, there's only one thing they're going to care about — it's the war I rem the Reagan staggering deficit, massive unemployment in 1980-82. Methinks, they underestimate people's memory. :P

"Most of the stuff they're buying is really for conventional kinds of foes," said Steve Kosiak of the Center for Strategy and Budgetary Assessments. "It's not geared to classic antiterrorist activities." I would love to hear Kosiak and the NYT explain that paragraph. What the heck does it mean? Doing a little digging I see that Kosiak is a budget analyst. So now the NYT is using budget analysts and bean counters to assess the fighting decisions being made by our armed forces and the equipment priorities set by the pentagon. Kosiak should realize he is in charge of paper and pencils not war. The NYT should realize that too.
