Military Funding Increases would allow us to:

1) Continue to push frontiers of science (e.g., materials engineering as an example)

2) Patrol the Northwest Passage which will open up thanks to all the minivans and SUVs guzzling gas.

3) Develop an expanded JTF2 - which will be an extremely effective counter-terrorism unit.

4) Allow Canada to contribute to peacekeeping in the manner in which it pretends to be contributing.

5) Increase our weight in international affairs to push our agenda of peace, liberty and justice.

The greatest threat to the United States is outlaw nations that possess weapons of mass destruction. These regimes could use such weapons for blackmail, terror, and mass murder. They could also give or sell those weapons to terrorist allies who would use them without the least bit of hesitation. Saddam Hussein has chemical and biological weapons and is harboring members of al Qaeda. If force becomes necessary to secure the U.S., and to keep the peace, America will act deliberately, America will act decisively, and America will act victoriously with the world's greatest military. The terrorists brought this war to us, now we're taking it back to them. This enemy reaches across oceans; it targets the innocent. There are no rules of war for these cold-blooded killers.
Unlike the cowardly French.... America will act!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

get your facts right.Iraq has no WMD's and the French are not cowards,rather the were brave to stand up to nimble minded hawks who not only threatened Iraq but any one who posses WMD in order to protect themselves against the nation who has them all.
