It’s not so much Obama who wants to retire the A-10s as the Air Force. They don’t want anything to do with aircraft that aren’t stealthy, sexy, and $150 million per copy. But they don’t want the Army to take them, either.

In the past, really dumb elected presidents had enough brains to seek out savvy advisers who actually knew their stuff, to provide expert advice.
