Personally, I think Cheney is a very decent man. On the other hand, he planned for the military cutbacks after Desert Storm. We who served during this time should admit this one. The real cuts of course came when Clinton took over. As for Hack...he served and did his job. Personally I don't think much of full-birds, but this man bled on the field with everyone else so everyone had better listen to what he has to say.

The threat had changed, and some cutbacks were in order. What Cheney and Bush I proposed was triming, what Clinton utlimately did was something best performed with an axe rather than a paring knife.
