Armed Services Chairman Sounds Alarm on Military’s ‘Marginal’ Strength

Rachel del Guidice / October 05, 2017

The military posture of the United States is rated as marginal in a new report from The Heritage Foundation, and that worries the chairman of the House Armed Services Committee.

The nation has “not been resourcing our military commensurate with what we ask our military to do,” Rep. Mac Thornberry, R-Texas, said at an event Thursday marking release of the report from the leading conservative think tank.

“And maybe more disturbingly, we have not been resourcing our military commensurate with our moral obligation to support the men and women who are risking their lives for us,” Thornberry said.

I guess to the democrats, whether or not this country can defend itself, isn't nearly as important as gun control.
