Thanks!

TMc For the same reason they dont break out the old tooling and start crankin out brand spankin new KC-135 Airframes with all the new updates to make it a better tanker! It would make way too much sense and it wouldnt cost enough to build unlike the new airframes (both rotary and fixed) of today!

! Yes I agree Gates has his moments but Ill be the very first to say "Im not qualified for his job!" My 81/2 years active duty and my 15 years federal civil service as a DOD employee for the USAF may have educated me in the blue collar world, but I dont have a clue how he does his job or how he gets through the day with his plate as full as it is dealing with the democratic vacuum!
Im Sure if so many of you are so Inclined you can find his e mail address, why dont you feel free to address him personally and offer your vast knowledge on the many subjects your so well versed in, or is it easier to just criticize from here in the cheap seats?

Ya Know, I read a lot of negative comments about Gates, But for all the negative I dont see anyone offering to help him, let alone any of the people who so Bravely step up to the keyboard and peck their opinions into comment format! How about you put yourself in his shoes and step up to the plate and fight the democrats yourself and see if you dont become a little overwhelmed at the prospect of having to fight nail tooth and claw to do your best to provide for our military?? All the while trying to keep the scales balanced with Obama Pelosi and the likes (continued>>)
