I "believe it or.........
NOT" alright!
can't you rabid conservative types EVER get your
"F-A-C-T-S" straight???
If you'd take the time to properly research the facts surrounding this injustice you would find (in the Congressional record no less!) that this bill was signed into LAW by none other than that ICON and "Fearless Leader" of less "Guvmant" and SUPER-conservatism hisseff, Ronnie Reagen in 1981...........that's Nineteen Hundred & Eighty One for you folks in Rio Linda-land.......during his first "reign" of TERROR against our troops and military veterans!
You "Clinton" bashers can NEVER get your facts staright, can you????
As for the so-called "peace-dividend"..............
Do you have any slight bit of an inkling (that's a cognizant thought for Rio Linda inhabitants) WHO started the "peace-dividend" for Gods' sake??
Once again...................I aim to "inform" and "educate" those folks who are ill advised and uniformed or "unable" to connect the "dots"!
The "PEACE-DIVIDEND" was initiated and put into "practice" by that wonderful fellow who said "READ MY LIPS" (GEE-Ws' daddy) and his 'minister of munitions' at the time (Sec of Defense, Dick "head" Cheney) in 1991 and 1992 after the first Gulf War when they went about dismantling our armed forces (reduced the size of our Army by 22%....and the Marines, Navy & Air Force by about 12 to 17%)
Which BTW Clinton bore the brunt of blame for these shortcomings for which he had absolutely NOTHING to do with???
It's ALL in the PUBLIC RECORDS if you don't believe me!
Look it up!
