This is merely Obama paying off the ChiComs so they will continue to buy our debt. If a few million Taiwanese die and/or become enslaved as a result, well, that’s just the cost of doing business...

That SOB is really pissing me off right now. I want to know his rationale for denying Taiwan the fighters after Congress has requested in writing for him to follow through on the deal. Who the hell does he think he is?!?

Exactly. What are this administration's specific reasons for this decision?

I cannot even stand to look at this big-eared menace anymore. When I see him on TV I am filled with rage and anger. I have to switch the channel. I just can't take anymore of this Kenyan flim-flam man's condescending BS anymore.

Agree. Found this article:

“...At the end of May, Lockheed had 62 unfilled F-16 orders — enough to keep the final assembly line open only through mid-2013. Production of many parts and components often begins two or more years before final assembly.

About 2,000 workers are directly employed by Lockheed in Fort Worth on the F-16 program and many more at companies in the region that manufacture or supply structural parts and other key components...”

Our friends are Obama’s enemies and our enemmies are his best friends. We are going to pay for what we have done in putting an African Marxist in the White House.
