I agree with this, and I think some Democrats have proposed increasing the size of the armed forces. If this is your beef, your problem is with Bush, who stubbornly pretends that his commanders don't want or need more troops*, and Rumsfeld, who is more interested in transforming the military than he is in winning the war it's actually fighting right now.

* Or maybe Bush truly believes this, which would be even scarier.

I don't object to spending money per se, and I would even support a tax increase to pay for it. But we've wasted a lot of money there. Wasting more won't help.
