Cost-cutting is nothing new to the government...it's just that they just don't like to DO it much (to) themselves, except when it comes to US, the TAXPAYERS...as in I have to cut MY costs when I shop, get gas, or do practically ANYTHING else these days, because I have more month at the end of my money...something those politicos NEVER seem to be saddled with. They're too busy voting themselves RAISES!
But recently, the democratically-controlled Congress has taken it upon themselves to cut expenditures to our military across the board (say it ain't so, Bob). Yes, unfortunately is IS all too true. Now before you go and rupture a blood vessel over this, it's not ALL bad news.
Take for example the latest in "cost-effectiveness" seen at a recent trip to Hurlburt AFB (home of AFSOC...that's Air Force Special Operations Command to you "civvies"). And don't think that just ANYONE can get to see this stuff....Hell, even R. Lee Ermey hasn't had a gander at all THIS...trust me!

This is the latest in the Air Force's arsenal of JDAM weaponry (any airman named JOE, JIM, JAKE, JOHN, or JAMAL is required to go through "training").
Glad my name's BOB...!
And this JDAM won't cost $30K+ on the practice range...nosiree!
This is a picture of the mounting procedure a "practice" JDAM. All practice ordinance will only be wearing BDUs and not be kitted out in full flight gear


Lastly , I caught this picture quite by accident and thought I'd toss it in here (near Norfolk, VA).

It's nice to know our nation will still be on the "cutting edge" of technology for years to come, thanks to ALL those Democrats.
OK, you nasty-ass maggots of the world...come GET some!
WE...ARE...READY!
