There are some real nuts in Congress, but the ones they would really need to convince are the twenty or so on the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on Defense.

There are some real nuts in Congress, but the ones they would really need to convince are the twenty or so on the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on Defense. Most of the real wackjobs are in the House of Reps, and I have a feeling the members of the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on Defense are kept on a shorter leash than most of the rest. At least insofar as being well informed about defense matters is concerned.
