Now, let me turn that analogy slightly into the situation we are in right now, because I think this administration is missing a lot of bags of nails that are out there. One in particular deals with our missile program in the future if, indeed, the direction we're going is not the right direction and we want to change that. You and I were here with several other Members last year a long time talking about our missile defense system, because last year we cut the potential of a mobile missile defense system, KEI. We stopped the ground-based missile defense system that we had, and we were complaining that that was probably an inopportune time. One of the nails that we are now missing is what happens if we don't look at the unintended consequences of our actions. I'm going to say how this thing kind of turns together, and sometimes I think this administration is not realizing how everything in government relates. Last year, when we stopped the ground-based missiles and stopped the KEI, among other things that we did, we put the industrial base in disarray.
