...The Liberals in Canada have so eviscerated the military...
The Canadian military budget is roughly double what the Iraqi military budget was in 2002 (this ratio hasn't changed much over the years).
What I don't understand is how Iraq got to be a world threat on about $4 billion a year, while Canada is a total wimp on $7.5 billion a year.
Maybe when the US is finished with Saddam the Canadian government could bring him in as a consultant.

It's called "Too Many Generals" ... our military is top heavy. Also, for a "wimp" of a military, the US forces hold us in pretty high regard.
