"Now clear for all to see is the fundamental result of a decade of Pentagon decision-making: For the first time since the years before World War II, the Air Force has failed to re-equip itself."

Just wanted that line to sink in to the naysayers out there that said it wouldn't happen.

Good way to make this knowledge stand out! It is really creepy and sad and INFURIATING NEWS! And I guess that now all of our enemies know that uhbama and his band of SNAKES and I DO MEAN SNAKES...starting with Rahm and going from there...have taken down and intend to disrupt and destroy the greatest military maching the world has EVER KNOWN...the fairest, strongest, most decent, most generous and more courageous military mankind has ever experienced.

I HATE this administration, with all of my heart. God forgive, but I do.

What we are really saying is that we want our young men and women to go into harm's way using substandard equipment. Think about it for a minute, if it were your son or daughter. This is a ridiculous strategy.

The first question that must be asked is, “What are the goals?” Then the next question that needs to be asked is, “ What are the strategies required to reach those goals?” Then you determine the cost effectiveness of each strategy to see which strategy you choose. Then you develop the tactics to make those strategies succeed. What we appear to be doing nationally is insuring that an adversary will attempt to defeat us in a major conflict. The adversary isn't necessarily one country alone, but a group of countries. When they think they can beat us, they will try. We have a lot of riches here. May God have mercy on us, if things aren't changed.
