Or you scale the military to a size that you can maintain. Let's start with the sitting ducks, er I mean Navy.

Scale back the global hegemonic empire and there wont be so many accidents.

Nah, just need less Obama's getting elected to decimate the military.

You might want to investigate who was behind sequestration. The GOP voted for the BCA by more than a 2 to 1 ratio.

This assumes you actually want to know the truth. Spouting Fox News nonsense is far easier. Just ask Drumpf.

Time to kick it up a notch or 2.

Eat ya heart out Alexander.

Zaphod, you’re so behind the times. Water isn’t wet. Water just hasn’t undertaken the exchange to gaseous fumes once a turbine has eaten it for lunch...

Its disgusting actually.

Some of the blame goes to congress and we are still feeling the disastrous consequences of the sequester.
Some of it goes to the brass who clearly had to have known there was an issue (not just in aviation)
And mostly the blame falls on us. We as citizens need to hold politicians accountable if they don't hold the military to the same standard. I can't walk up to a general and tell him to get you %^&^ together. But a member of the armed forces committee can

Good grief! 'Hold politicians accountable'??? For 'anything'??? Anything at all???? I don't think that's happened since...errrr...I can't even remember when! Politicians in this country are ABOVE accountability, don't you know that??? The only thing they're accountable for is...their own well being. That's all!

Since hardly any US troops have died in Syria, thanks to Obama deploying Al Qaeda as "our" Merc force, you should be praising Him. Unless US troops dying in your wonderlust of global destruction is your desire.

Oh I see so Obama's a hero now for sending a bunch of al-Qaeda to die instead because there's somehow less human or something. Wow, you're quite the racist aren't you

I would hazard a guess that the "Military Times" is as good of a source of info as the "Federal Express".

The Military Times is as unbiased as say...Fox News or World Net Daily.
