our military forces are.

That statement is just plain stupid, that's all.

Did you ever notice that on the one hand, Harry is all up in arms
about "boys with their toys" everytime we bring up some new nifty
piece of military hardware, but on the other hand, the military is a
bunch of incompetants because they can't keep pirates, in
international waters, from capturing other country's flag vessels
because they can't get new, low draft, high speed interdiction ships
built because the money has to go to saving UAW jobs or welfare
mothers.

It's perfect liberal thinking.

Yes.

He's a good joke though.
