No one knows what he is talking about:
” In the spirit of the Reinventing Government initiative, Gingrich told the House GOP, “I believe we can overhaul the mid-level bureaucracy of the Pentagon and that our goal should be to turn the Pentagon into a triangle by reducing at least 40 percent of the unnecessary duplication and waste that’s in the system.”
Really? What 40% “unnecessary duplication and waste”? Why not 38%, or 50%? Where did he get 40%? Oh, that’s right - 2 sides of a pentagon are 40%, so his number matches his slogan. Great!
And what is waste? Obama and others consider the F-22 waste. In the 70s, many democrats argued the F-15 was waste. What waste is he talking about, and how does he plan to eliminate waste and not good stuff?
Its not like our very freedom and lives depend on it.
67% of all statistics are made up on the spot.
This thread has shown me yet again why I’m not a Republican.
Loud cries about all the waste, fraud, and abuse in the government. The first mention of cleaning any of it up in the DoD, and people act like you’re some kind of commie. Sacred cows/ gored oxen.
Did you even read what he said about cutting bureaucracy and investing the savings in troops and equipment?
Good grief people can be so damned dense sometimes.
