those weapons systems were all part of Senate Bill S3189 which was the Fiscal Year 1991 Defense Appropriations Act. There was no vote on those weapons systems individually. Kerry was one of 16 senators (including 5 republicans) to vote against the defense appropriations.
Guess who said this:
"Overall, since I've been Secretary, we will have taken the 5 year defense program down by well over $300 billion. That's the peace dividend...and now we're adding to that another $50 billion...of so-called peace dividend."
And this:
"Congress has let me cancel a few programs. But you've squabbled and sometimes bickered and horse-traded and ended up forcing me to spend money on weapons that don't fill a vital need in these times of tight budgets and new requirements. You've directed me to buy more M-1's, F-14's, and F-16's-all great systems, but we have enough of them." --****** Cheney while he was in George H. Bush's cabinet.
Let's tell the truth guys. DMV, thanks for bringing this up, it makes a point about the way facts get twisted to serve an agenda.
