What little Hawk is describing is the 1950s Eisenhower administration. Back then, kids had a toy ---- the Dwight Eisenhower Doll-----! It sat on it's ass and did practically nothing all the time it was in office. And then, in the end, all the things Ike should've taken care of, like the Military-Industrial Complex, he finally took note of in his last speech------when he warned of the dangers of the M.I.C.

As I'm fond of saying, "As is said, history repeats. And it costs twice as much every time around."
