we have seen this administration is all about corrupting numbers and claiming victory from those corrupt figures . I do not believe the U.S. was ever delivered the correct vote numbers in either election . This is an administration of lies , vote fraud , national deception

If possible ? some of these military vehicles might be able to converted over to run on bio diesel or natural gas, could help the local farmers with soy beans, or some other type of plant that could be processed into bio diesel like sunflower seeds.
Another form of fuel is gasification of wood, wood by products, agriculture wastes, and so on and so on.

" I'm not altogether sure how armored personnel carriers (MRAPS) can be used for highway maintenance. Perhaps you could explain how the vehicle shown in post #6 could be used for that purpose. "

The back panels cover over the built in donut and coffee cafe for the " 10 standing by work projects state highway workers " and one stop coffee shop for the high way police.

Wait until they find out what a tune-up, engine rebuild or new tranny costs. Those things will become local park monuments, next to the WWII howitzers.

Don’t sell them to Karzai for any price. Blow them up in place if necessary, but if Karzai gets them they *will* be used against us some day.

I’m sure law enforcement agencies across the U.S. could put them to use (not that I support that).

National Guard kazernes -- that's where they belong. Right here at home. We paid for them, we own them.
