35. "Edwards will put America on an offensive footing against those who would harm us."
I guess that's like the Iraq War Resolution that he co-sponsored with Joe Lieberman that many believe gave Bush a free pass to invade Iraq even though he knew the intelligence was bogus while serving on the Senate Intelligence Committee at the time. I'm still not sure if Edwards did or din't read the Iraq NIE reports since the campaign said he did...and he didn't.

The plan looks like the major amount of effort would be more military equipment, more troops signing up, more military leadership overriding civilian decisions with vacuous utterances about education, opportunity, and prosperity replacing "the lure of violent extremism".

Sounds great!
