Comments on: The Engine No One Wants — Except Congress

The Government Is Spending $100 Million In Tax Dollars On A Jet Engine Deemed Unnecessary By The Military

Maybe Teddy boy is trying to push the air force, via this competition B.S., so that they'll develop an engine that can make a plane go faster than the speed of light. Then he'll be able to go back in time, prevent that little drowning debacle that tanked his presidential hopes and thus replace Hilary. Now that's the kind of logic a senator could be proud of!

I think the Air Force should have the opportunity to vote in Congress. Perhaps the Wing or Base Commander from every base could participate in Congress when these issues come up?

Again, another example of Congress interfering where it doesn't need to be. The Air Force knows its stuff and should have the say in what is needed or not, especially if it costs taxpayers money!!

Sounds like the M.O.M interfering at Hogwarts!!! Next thing you know Congress will order the Air Force to fly Firebolts!! Or even Nimbus 2000's/2008's.
