Bush to Propose Trimming Army Reserve

Is our President nuts? Has he not read the reports of understaffing in the Armed Forces? Or is this just a ploy, since it reduces authorized levels to current levels, to make it look like we're meeting recruiting goals?

We've got Iran and North Korea rattling nuclear sabers - now it not the time to cut back on troop strength or weapons research!

AP - President Bush will use his new budget to propose cutting the size of the Army Reserve to its lowest level in three decades and stripping up to $4 billion from two fighter aircraft programs.
