Did you have a hard time understanding?

What I am proposing tonight is the most extensive reorganization of the federal government since the 1940s. During his presidency, Harry Truman recognized that our nation's fragmented defenses had to be reorganized to win the Cold War. He proposed uniting our military forces under a single Department of Defense, and creating the National Security Council to bring together defense, intelligence, and diplomacy. Truman's reforms are still helping us to fight terror abroad, and now we need similar dramatic reforms to secure our people at home.
Now did he say largest expansion?

"Harry Truman recognized that our nation's fragmented defenses had to be reorganized to win the Cold War."

This in NOT a "Cold War!" It's the HOTTTEST war this country has ever been in. It's being fought right here on our soil/pavement and the attack is coming from turds living in our punchbowl. The rhetoric "Axis of Evil" is not even pinning down a war of any kind against a sponsoring country beyond Afganistan.

9-11 dwarfed Pearl Harbor and was induced by Clinton, Clinton & Gore. Yet the man we demonstrated for to keep his election intact continues to retain their despicable people in positions of irresponsibility. Why wasn't the lawyer in the Federal Bureau of Incompetance that blocked that agent's memo FIRED? Why was he pensioned out of position like he'd done nothing wrong?

I'm not bashing my President in time of war! I have a right as a taxpaying citizen to question until I get satisfaction. Right now, I can't get any! Even his appearant backing away from that EPA report on Globular Warming got backed away from by Ari Flysher before Rush's show was even over yesterday. That's not a sign of a stable, consistent administration!!!
