The Reality-Based Community

In the New York Times today, Wellesley professor Kelly Greenhill notes something that should be repeated ad nauseam by every Democrat, in every election, at every opportunity. She writes:

DESPITE claims to the contrary by Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, the Army is facing a manpower crisis. The evidence can be found in two separate reports released last month — one commissioned by the Pentagon, the other by Congressional Democrats — and in this simple fact: last year the Army accepted its least qualified pool in a decade.

The Army inducted both more recruits without high school diplomas and more youths scoring in the lowest category of the Army's aptitude test, so-called Category IV recruits.

So why is it that the MSM is saying that Democrats have a problem with credibility on national security?
