Pentagon Criticized Unfairly
They’re dammed if they do and dammed if they don’t. The Lie-berals love to criticize the military for the cost of the war in Iraq. The price tag is a little over $510,000,000,000 though I hardly think you can put a price on freedom. Still the loony left loves to attack this as wasteful spending.
The Pentagon then tries to find ways to make fighting cheaper. They get some 23 year olds and have them supply Afghanistan with weapons. They buy airplane parts from companies owned by the leaders of Warren Jeffs’ polygomous church and in both cases they’re harshly criticized. However, this week Hillary Clinton hit a new low.
Now Hillary is criticizing the Pentagon because they outsourced smart bomb technology to China. She points out that the Magnequench Factory in Valparaiso, Indiana is closed and the smart bomb guidance systems are now manufactured in China. Well excuse me Hillary, but if you haven’t been paying attention outsourcing is good for America. What’s more we do it with pet food, toys, and a whole bunch of other things. Why not our bombs? It isn’t like China’s our enemy or anything.
Even better, the company was sold to the Chinese in 1995…
