He gutted the CIA with his budget cuts. Watched a History channel doc on OBL and how they tracked him down etc and a few times they described how the CIA was 20-30 years behind with ground assets because of those budget cuts.

Let's see how the plans actually get carried ot. he needs to use 100% force to eradicate them and not just talk about it.

Lib's always try to have it both ways. I was working in Oregon shortly before 9/11 and Afghanistan. Several times a week, for almost 2 years, I would get emails from far lefty's on the Taliban and how bad they were (human rights, women children etc) they called for every action possible against them, even military action. The US had barely begun its campaign in Afghanistan and the same groups were stunned at our actions. Marching, protesting, chaining themselves to trees and National Guard gates.

Honestly, that started in the late 1970s.

However, the significant cuts during the Clinton Administration, which led to the mythical, non-existent "surplus" were primarily in the Department of Defense, and in particular, the Army - the organization which would ultimately bear the lion's share of work in the GWOT (tm).
