It was just awful. I’ll bet the House reprimanded him severely.

But just for the record, MENSA, it is the DOD that pressures Congress to fund things, not the other way around. The Congress’ job is to equip the military. What it legislates, the DOD buys. And that old Hunter was just awful. He wouldn’t let Clinton’s DOD kill Star Wars. The nerve of that man.

No super brain, the Department of Defense wanted to quit funding the failed VTOL that Hunter and Cunningham were being paid to pimp for and allocate the money to the development of a better aircraft. The Army, Navy, Air Force and even NASA didn't want the piece of crap, but old Duncan and his jailbird buddy Duke kept pimping for it. BTW all 4 test models crashed, but old Duncan wanted to keep it going, wonder why super brain?
And now back to my original statement which you did not comment on (BTW that is a normal troll tactic):

So you proudly supported someone for president in 2008 that took kickbacks from an aerospace outfit, DuPont Aerospace, and used influence (along with Duke Cunningham) while he sat on the House Armed Services Committee to pressure the Department of Defense to continue funding a failed VTOL aircraft. Apparently your chosen candidates don't need to be as perfect as you demand of Sarah Palin.
