Huh? Bush to cut Army Reserves?

'Bush will use his new budget to propose cutting the size of the Army Reserve to its lowest level in three decades and stripping up to $4 billion from two fighter aircraft programs. The proposals, likely to face opposition on Capitol Hill, come as the Defense Department struggles to trim personnel costs and other expenses to pay for the war in Iraq and a host of other pricey aircraft and high-tech programs. Bush will send his 2007 budget to Congress on Feb. 6'.
Well, I guess you just use less men and send them more often or keep them there longer. Many of them are on their third tour of Iraq already. What's one more?
