Interesting article on how Bush, despite his criticisms of Clinton's supposed anemic build-up of the U.S. military, owes Clinton a lot of thanks for the military's current state of modernization, as suggested by Cheney (of all people). Snippet:
Bush and Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld deserve enormous credit for the military victory over Iraq. Clinton deserves to share in that credit. Despite Republican cries of a "hollow military," the Clinton administration left behind a highly capable force that served the nation well when an unpredicted threat emerged. How do we know? Cheney said so.
