  • I think military spending is a must. relax guys im a democrat and i voted for obama, but i see everyday russian , china building they military and i say to my self why do they do that that's to become more powerful. i think us as a superpower we should spend money in our military. meke more f22 and f 35 more stealh plane more missele shield to protect the us. also we need to spend money in creating more jobs, health and other issue here in the usa.

  • I used to work on KC-135 errrrcraft. They'll be flying for another 30 years. It's the best bang for the buck the Errrrrr Force ever got for it's money.

    I say we all chip in and get Martin a new perm and a speech therapist.

  • They need to buy American and go union. Instead of bailing companies out, we should spend the money on building what we need, be it planes or trains or solar panels. GM is utterly incompetent, let it die. Put their employees to work somewhere else.

  • this dude needs to calm down, our air superiority is strong, there is no imminent danger with our "ER" tankers. What we need to do is shut down some of our 6700 plus military bases around the world and US

  • I think it makes more economic sense to continue production of KC235s, F15s, F16s and whatever else because these aircraft have already proven their performance, spare parts are abundant, ground crews and pilots know the technical characteristics and there would be no expense in developing and introducing a new model.

  • *Air*craft, not "ercraft."
