I drove past this between Salida and Cotopaxi on State Highway 50 in Colorado. I had to turn around and tell whoever that I stood with them totally assuming I was correct. I was and got the biggest hug of appreciation for doing so.

From my understanding, there are close to 3000 children being held around this country after being seized from their parents at the border.

Many will never see their Mom and Dad again because Republicans are totally evil.

You bastards!

Pieces Of Shit With Wings

I saw this and thought this is a joke but when you're talking R&D for the military it's all on the table as several companies want to get on this gravy train.

A conceptual drawing of a "Transformer" produced by AAI, a subsidiary of Textron Systems. Several companies are vying to develope the vehicle under a DARPA program that will give troops a transport that can scurry down roads linke and SUV, but quickly transition to flight.

I wish someone would pay me for coming up with dumb ass ideas.

The military and their budget is never going to change except that it will grow larger. Are we all on the table with that or do you think starting next year there will be significant cuts then and for years following so these monies can be used to address our Nation's infrastructure and other issues.

    Another military industrial complex wet dream. It should be good for a 300-500% cost over run.

    You gotta be shitting me? If that is true I refuse to believe Gates didn't can it as part of the $50 billion he cut.

    Jesus fucking Christ on a popsicle stick... anything light enough to fly *has* to be a tin can that you can probably punch your fist through the side, much less a bullet. Might as well paint a target on our GI's and say to potential enemies, "Here ya go, boys, GI spam in a can!"

    Yeah, officially Stupidest Idea of the Century...

    After the debacle in Iraq over over armor on these things BTux that something that is used on the ground and needs armor to protect the riders from the bad guys is going to be made to fly is literally crazy talk.

    I say bring that on if that is the way to stop this country funding aggression all over the world JR.
