#1 The G's are long overdue and badly needed, but without the Raptors, they will not live long in hostile airspace. Its even a bigger issue for EW big aircraft like Rivet Joints etc.

People forget that we do not magically have air supremacy in every conflict. And there's no bigger target than one of these massive flying emitters.

What is with this constant trashing of the F-22? Its press obeisance to Obama not wanted any more than the 187 built. The USAF needs 224.

I am beginning to think our press needs to be destroyed and rebuilt from the ground up. Its has become an organ of the state.

#2 It is the official mouthpiece of the liberal socialist movement. And it is being destroyed, if the government doesn't bail it out. People are starting to stop listening to it and finding their news elsewhere.

NYT can't go belly up soon enough.

#3 If NYT folds, look for all their 'reporters' to get hired by a big, government-funded expansion of NPR and tv.

#4 Secretive Jammer Fleet? Cripes, there will probably be a Congressional hearing and an AG investigation to see if any laws have been broken.
