How could a few thousand white Europeans, from the 16th Century to the early 20th Century dominate the Americas, Africa and much of Asia?
By having far superior weaponry, not by having white skin.
There is a lesson there.

This is so upsetting. I know the Raptors are expensive but owning the sky is essential. These libs, Gates included, want to be part of another gubmint via casualty of war.

IT still won’t be enough for them to beat us. It will still be a plane made in China. Hell it will still have melamine and lead issues, I’m sure.

expensive? they are not really that expensive. The new 747 cost more.
We could of bought 75,000 F-22 at the 'high price' with the amount we spent last year in new money alone (including what the feds dumped into the dollar not including what the world dumped into the dollar.)

China will be capable of deploying an advanced fifth generation fighter comparable to the U.S. F-22 within eight years, years ahead of previous Pentagon assessments. I guess we need to start looking for Chinese spies in the F22 development team.

There is a mu*lim in the white hut. Blam idiots who watch TV because the 5 TV Networks own 95% of the channels and they back Obama 100% including Fox-Saudi News.

This is looking more and more like the Carter years. We were hearing the same about the Soviet's Backfire bomber in the late 70's.
Here's to hoping we have at least one more Reagan Recovery in us.

Beat us? We beat ourselves - look at the white hut. The idiot serfs are happy with NCAA college ball on TV. They all have corn cobs.... Idiots.
Meanwhile the cowardly top brass in the Pentagon sell out our troops.
Welcom to Obama-America.

Letting the Chinese leapfrog us in the technology will bring very bad things down the road.

We need more F-22s. There’s no doubt about that in my mind. I don’t think China’s verson will be nearly as good as ours, but... who really knows.
You don’t wait until the enemy has caught up to you or has passed you to take action.
We need to take Congress back this November, then fully fund another four to five hundred F-22s.
You don’t deter the enemy, by convincing him you are giving up.

Yes, but the Chinese are craftier in their econmic approach than the sluggish Russian economy.
