Funny... last time I heard, Congress is the one who decides how many tax-dollars go to the military.

Humvee's were never envisioned for the tasks they have been forced to perform... but that's why they call it war. The enemy does not constantly attack your strengths... they look to find your weaknesses.

Wasn't it Bill Clinton who broke down the strength of our military?

Humvee's aren't meant to be in the thick of a fight. The armor slows them down too much. It really isn't a permanent solution .

Clinton said she hopes to accomplish something to solve the problem.

She can accomplish something by staying the hell out of the arsenal and getting out of the way.

In the meantime, the arsenal expects to complete its order for 500 more Humvee armor kits by next month.

Why the delay?! It's an outrage! Why they should be able to have those completed by tomorrow---yesterday!

< /extreme saracasm >

As Sec.Rumsfeld noted, it's not a matter of money but logistics.

Blythe didn't note that but eagerly noted how "Sen. Clinton has an answer" as if "the answer" was correct just because the she-thing said it.

Everyone in office is a moron. Everyone looking to get elected has all the answers.

I would like for these noble democrats like Hitlery and Kerry to offer the solutions they are keeping secret before more people are killed.

The Humvee apparently was never meant to be an armored car. So, what IS the Military Spec armored car? Why aren't we concerned with producing those and getting them over there? Isn't that what the troops REALLY need? Armored cars? More force protection? High-tech IED finders like the Izzies have? Why this obsession with armor? Oh, I know. Because they can beat Bush over the head with it.

Myself? Got enough during the election season. We won, they lost, too bad, so sad. Let them talk. We have some time in which we can ignore the damn marxists. I'd frankly see some of them give their lives than our soldiers.
