Duncan Hunter Archives--Rep. Hunter Chosen President of American Security Council
News Which Cannot Lose ^ | 9/11/07 | Staff

Posted on 09/12/2007 6:57:02 AM PDT by pissant

Presidential candidate Duncan Hunter has a history of fighting to protect America--sometimes he gets credit. Check out this 1989 article:

San Diego Union-Tribune January 31, 1989

The American Security Council, an organization that supports development of the MX missile, the Stealth bomber and the "Star Wars" missile defense system, has chosen Rep. Duncan Hunter , R-Coronado, as its new president.

Hunter, a member of the House Armed Services Committee and the second-ranking member of its seapower subcommittee, is the first member of Congress to serve as president of the 310,000-member organization. John M. Fisher, the organization's chairman and chief executive officer, praised Hunter for supporting the Reagan administration's campaign to modernize strategic forces.

Hunter has scored 100 percent on the council's so-called National Security Index, a rating system that evaluates members of Congress according to how they vote on several key defense issues.

No one in government has the national security credentials of Duncan Hunter. Not McCain, not the joint chiefs, and certainly no democrat.

“REP. HUNTER: Chris, thanks very much. John’s not the only guy with a defense background. I’ve been chairman of the Armed Services Committee for the last four years. I’ve helped to rebuild national defense. We have worked hard to make sure that our people have enough pay, that they’ve got the ammunition, that they’ve got the equipment, while at the same time looking over the horizon to look at the new threat of an emerging China and an Iran that is pursuing nuclear weapons and a Korea that already has some and is moving to get the means for delivery. So a strong national defense, the trademark of Ronald Reagan, is what I would pursue.
....
“You know, right now, right now, Iran is moving equipment into Iraq that is being used to kill Americans. Iran has crossed the line, and the United States has absolute license at this point to take whatever actions are necessary to stop those deadly instruments from being moved across the line, being used in explosives, roadside bombs, inside Iraq.”

From the first debate.

If America really wants a qualified Commander in Chief to be President, they need look no further.

Let’s see. A guy who will not only defeat the islamo-scum, tame Iran, rebuild the military to Reagan levels, secure the border, deport the hordes, but is the ONLY one who will confront China. Tough decision.

Any concerns that the American Security Council might be basically a sort of trade association /advocacy group for the munitions industry/military contractors?

But wait.. the “no name recognition” crowd will say that in 1989 - no one knew who Duncan Hunter was, and there is not enough time before the 2008 election for people to “get to know him”.... so therefore he can’t possibly be President !!! /sarcasm>

GREAT POST ! Thanks for the “history lesson” Duncan Hunter has been doing great things for America for a long time — it’s time we RECOGNIZE it !!
