Obama Announces Re-election Bid

That GE/Rolls Royce engine for the strike fighter is a freaking vampire that will not die. It is an absolute waste of taxpayer money. Every congressperson who voted in favor of reviving it is working at odds with the American taxpayer.

Pratt and Whitney won the competition. They got the contract. The military does not want or need the extra engine. You see, they've already got one.

I'm not even convinced we need this new fighter at all, but if we are going to get it, at least do it in a smart way.
