I saw news reports yesterday showing the new Humvees the troops had received. The report stated that the war started with just over 2000 and now there are over 19,000. 15K of the 19K are fixed with the new armour. It was also noted that under the Clinton administration the military was decreased significantly and new equipment was cut from the budget, which, Kerry voted for. As a fact Kerry voted against the new Humvee armoured vehicles as well as body armour for the troops and most other military items. You may remember, under the Clinton Admn. hundreds of F-16 fighters were grounded for lack of parts.

Well, we started a war with what we had left over from the Clinton era and the Kerry votes. SO, I think we are doing a great job with the limited resources, that are being built up daily. The military went to war, took charge and kicked major butt with limited resources.

Now, I offer you a chance to blame the liberals for the lack of equipment? I bet you will not! Then you wouldn't have anything to complain about. Would you like some cheese with that "whine"!
