We know the Dem's were going to come down hard on Defense, just like the Clinton years...the old guns for butter BS...trouble is we get a double-dipping of socialist butter and few guns...readiness and capability suffered under Clinton...by the time of the Gulf War we basically committed every asset we had just for that endeavor...had we been hit by somebody else, there would have been no reserves, just overrun Americans. And here we ago again.
I know there will be cuts, but it sucks to see J-Mac running interference in the GOP for the Dem's, but that is who he is, eh?
I think there is a way they could have a change in the law for vet's and preexisting conditions, something to ease the transition...otherwise they'll be many clogging up emergency rooms with who knows what needing treatment, and we'll eat those costs!
