Wasn't it Bill Clinton who broke down the strength of our military?
Under Clinton, defense spending went from 20.7% of the federal budget in 1993, to 16.4% in 2001. As a portion of GDP, defense spending under Clintonm declined from 4.4% of GDP in 1993, to 3.0% in 2001. Anyway you slice, Clinton unfunded the US military for eight long years.
