Human Events: Unwilling to Defend America - 'For a quarter century, Sen. Joe Biden has opposed the strengthening of America’s national security at every turn. Across the board he has opposed the modernization of our strategic nuclear forces. He was for the nuclear freeze, even when U.S. nuclear forces were in serious disrepair. He opposed the Trident submarine and its C-4 and D-5 missiles; the Peacekeeper land-based missile critical to the winning of the Cold War; the deployment of the Pershing and GLCMs intermediate range ballistic missiles necessary to counterbalance the Soviets deployed SS-20s; and the B-2 bomber, a critical deployment of new stealth technology...'

Unwilling to defend America is just another way that the defense industry (for profit industry remember) makes sure that it gets free reign to develop and market new weapons systems. Calling critics unpatriotic has worked for 60 years. Having the guts to oppose this makes Joe Biden an American hero, not in any way a traitor to his country that the defense establishment would like us to believe of him.
