Thanks, Dan, for saving me the trouble of posting that again for the late comers.

Additionally, here's some info from the Washington Post (12/16/84) and Congressional Testimony (2/1/90):
[i]"(Cheney) also chastised Reagan's defense policies - the same policies
conservatives are trumpeting as Reagan's lasting legacy. Cheney said at the
height of the Cold War that if Reagan "doesn't really cut defense, he
becomes the No. 1 special pleader in town." Cheney urged Reagan to cut
defense spending, saying, "the president has to reach out and take a whack
at everything to be credible," and told the White House that "you've got to
hit defense."

Six years later, Cheney followed through on his statements by changing the
same Reagan defense policies he now touts. In 1990, he bragged to Congress
that as Defense Secretary he "cut almost $65 billion out of the five-year
defense program" and that subsequent proposals would "take another $167
billion out." He highlighted, "we're recommending base closures," "we're
talking about force structure cuts" and "we've got a military construction
freeze."

Here\'s another link that points out more GOP misleading statements.


And, again, you haven't proven where Kerry's actions amounted to aiding and abetting the enemy. The book is the opinion of the author and pure conjecture on his part.
