Actualy I wonder which "Country" was suppose to be on guard. You know, it was all the idiots in DC trying to micro-manage the war in Nam that screwed shit up back then. Trying to fight a "limited war" is not something the military does well. President Bush understood that concept and relied on his commanders to take the initiative of everyday running of our military. Much like how FDR left Ike alone once he was put in charge of the European campaign. Kerry would probably have to re-instate the draft if elected. All the career people I've heard from will not stay in under his command. Let me repeat that..."ALL, I SAID ALL OF THE CAREER MILITARY PEOPLE I'VE HEARD FROM WILL RESIGN UNDER KERRY"! Now consider the consequences of that. Stuntman
