She could not possibly be worst then Bush, the Bush presidency makes the Clinton presidency look good.

Thank God for Presidential term limits.

Given a little more time he'd make LBJ look good!

Ah, Yes she could!

Don't forget so soon just how inimical to defense she and her husband, and Gore and Kerry were. Remember who it was who took Chinese money and transferred crucial technology to them? Who was it who allowed Los Alamos to become a hive of Chinese infestation?

Under a President Hillary, what little GWB is doing to promote military procurement for the future would be terminated. Forget about NMD. Forget about getting deployments of any F-22's, JSF F-35's, or Virginia-class attack subs, or even the LCS Littoral Combat Ship. At least GWB is doing a little (albeit not enough, and is manifestly a conflicted fellow, see below). She would slash the forces steeply, just as her fellow communist, John Kerry would have, and don't ever forget...Bill Clinton tried to further cut in 1998-99, but was stopped by some GOP Congressmen with some spine. They only lose their spine when the White House is supposedly held by one of our own.

BTW: The only time GWB ever, ever, ever threatens a veto is when Congress tries to increase U.S. production of defense assets, or preserve the defense assets we have. He threatened a veto over Duncan Hunter's simple 65% domestic content bill, and he just again threatened a veto over a bill that would delay the BRAC base closing decisions until after the War on Terror was over...

GWB also apparently warned Donald Rumsfeld to follow his orders (he was legimimately footdragging) and dismantle all our 100 MX missiles or be fired. (Meanwhile, the Russians are keeping 95% of their SS-18's operationally deployed until 2017). The expense of GWB's unilateral disarmement of our land and air based strategic weaponry (half of our B-1Bs's were also decommissioned thoughtlessly by him) is running in excess of $4.5 billion annually...squandering preciously scarce DOD monetary resources...to produce LESS security!

In contrast, it would only have cost $1 billion or so just to keep these strategic weapons systems active and viable. What kind of a "Business Man" makes these kind of economic decisions? He is also going to cut out over the next decade about 25 attack submarines...which we couldn't afford to rebuild!

So we have one President (the current one) who is, on Defense, perhaps at best a "C" or a "D" student. Hillary would not even get an "F" but be given an Incomplete and expelled from school for truancy, and egging the Principal's car.

Some choice. Sigh.
