As did Clinton, they will prove they're not soft on national security by talking tough and bloviating, not by actually taking any actions that improve our security.

I have a feeling they will pass increased defense spending. After all, the military budget has to get past Bush.

You must be one a them there optimists :)

Even if you're right, though, it won't do much good, because they'll still spend the next 2 years putting up bills to neuter our intelligence agencies and protect the "rights" of the animals who want to kill us.

Congress may pass increased defense spending, but at least half of the Democrats will vote against it.
