Please don't be too upset. Bush is just being Proactive. He is completely revamping the mitary forces. What is happening is a more adaptable and fluid force structure.


Instead of clinging onto the Margonot Line like France did in the 1930's, or hold on to the Calvary, like the Poles did in 1938, or using mass armor like Hussen did in Iraq,he is trying to adapt to the changes in the global weapon and threat structure.


Our military ig becomming far more dangerous and useful to the US interests than it ever has been before. Or, do you think that we need to have forced conscription?

Lack of hard target destroying capability is in our best intrests? News to me.

This isn't about upgrading, this is about a fundamental deficiency in our warfighting capability (where the F*** is our civil defence!)

Oh, wait, I forgot. Russia is our friend now! (weapons grade sarcasm)

More fluid, thats rich.... all this talk about bunker busting nukes is funny because Bush Senior DESTROYED THEM ALL! We are proposing a phony strategy to be fought with weapons we don't have. Do you have any idea how long it takes, not to mention the cost, to produce nuetron bombs? How about to cook new plutonium for triggers, tritium for the big boom? Because we aren't producing any.
