Here we go again!
Leftist Democratic Congressman Barney Frank wants to reduce military spending by twenty-five percent.
The Clinton administration trashed our military and intelligence capabilities, and paved the way for 9/11. While the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have obviously greatly contributed, another major reason for the Bush Administration's budget deficits has been this administration's efforts to undo the damage.
But if- as appears likely- Barack Obama is elected president a week from Tuesday with an increased Democratic majority, history will likely repeat itself- except it will be worse. Clinton, after all, was a moving force in the sometimes-Centrist Democratic Leadership Conference; Obama will be the first president the McGovern wing of the party has ever elected.
