"The Air Force had requested Lockheed Martin and Boeing, which jointly build the F-22, to produce 60 more of the aircraft but was hoping for a minimum of 20, McKeon said. Gates' proposed budget, released Monday, calls for only four more of the aircraft. Parts for the F-22 are made in Palmdale, and cuts in orders for the F-22 could mean local job cuts."

This could become a big problem for the Democrats in the next election cycle. The love to talk down the military but love the military spending. They have always been duplicitous and thought Obama was as well. This should get interesting.
