Why would anyone think the obama administration would want US troops to have the best weapon available? It hates the US military.
True that. Hates the U.S. in general, the working, tax-paying, God-fearing portion of it, anyway.
Does this administration have it’s own version of “That old fogey” James Wolfe Ripley in charge of modernizing our arms?
