In a foreign policy speech at a Washington think tank, Sen. Hillary Clinton chided President Bush for not thanking her husband for handing the current administration such a strong military.
Critics, however, point to deep cuts in military spending during the 1990s and Clinton's personal loathing for the military, which they contend led to low morale among the ranks.
In her Brookings speech, Clinton also said she thought women in Iraq were better off under the Saddam Hussein regime because of their participation in the public arena.

cwilli note: BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! This article is a must read.
Notice that when she talks about Vice-pres. Cheney writing letters to former Pres. Reagan thanking him for building such a good military it also quotes her as saying:
"Well, I don't know, but I don't think any letters have yet arrived on the desks of anyone associated with the Clinton administration,"
Yeah....if she's waiting on that one....she had better pack a lunch and a change of clothing :-)
Why can't we sent *her* to Mars on a special mission? I would help pay for that one myself :-P

I'm glad George did so much good for our military.
