I’m sure he wants that outcome. Never let a good crisis go to waste.

Someone earlier today mentioned a Charlie Sheen Pentagon. We should be so lucky. Barry and his assistants in the GOP didn’t peter principle Sheen up the ladder.

Any U.S. ‘dogfighter’ pilot who attempts to STOP Russian fighter jets from exterminating Muslim vermin can GO TO HELL. Yes, I said GO TO HELL for joining 0dingo/ValJar’s undermining of America, WAR on Christianity, expansion of the Caliphate, etc..

The only reason the US would shoot down Russian jets is to protect terrorists and Islamic fundamentalists

There is nothing conspiratorial about considering whether or not the current occupant of the white house would use ANY excuse to declare martial law and suspend the 2016 elections.

Except there's nothing in it for Obama to stick around. He's got a lucrative future of book advances, lectures and foundation graft ahead of him once he vacates the White House.

Sorry, not buying the martial law/cancelled elections conspiracy.

“Yes and they are awesome. The F22 is what we would send if we were serious as that is THE air superiority plane.”

Im not even convinced of that. The 15 is supposedly beatable by a 22 on a given day, IF the O2 system on the 22 is working, etc.
The 15 has a reputation of dead balls on reliability and hasn’t been beaten yet in air to air combat.

At this point, I would applaud. I would feel horrible that we lost a fine F-15C aircraft, however.

I want Putin to KILL as many Muslim vermin as humanly possible and ta hell with 0dinga for trying to stop him!!!

The F-22 OBOGS system problem has been resolved and now works great.. 0dinga supposedly DID sent 6 or 8 F-22’s to the Mideast SOMEWHERE, location classified. Who knows..

anyone who thinks the Russians are killing moderates has not looked up the identities and sympathies and affiliations of the groups being targeted

and the Russian BDA reports are naming names of both target units and individuals

If a Dem is elected president in 2016, 0dinga stays in the U.S. to become George Soros II. If a Republican is elected president in 2016, 0dinga LEAVES THE COUNTRY, POSSIBLY FOR CUBA and I guarantee you that.

My kid was on the 22 program for a few years. It’s sorted. In the Red Flags, the 22 is beyond deadly. most of its opponents never even knew they were ‘dead’.

But don’t get me wrong. The 15 was decades ahead of it’s time and still the hottest thing in the sky short of it. It should have it’s picture in the dictionary near the word ‘Awesome”.

Hell it only needs half the plane to even be intact to fly.

He’s a totalitarian dictator, invader and murderer.

Do you like that he’s killed Ukrainians, Georgians and political opponents? I don’t.

Putin is a general purpose jerk. He happens to be killing some convenient guys today. But he has no morals. Yesterday and tomorrow he’ll kill people we like with no compunction whatsoever.

Raise your hand if you think the president would give the order to shoot down Russian planes.

Didn't think so ...

The rules of engagement could be so restrictive that our planes are sitting ducks, and then they get sent into provocative situations. Or they could be there to shoot down Israeli F 15’s.

Unfortunately with Barry and the GOP in charge, being a Putinista isn’t the bad thing it would be in any normal situation.

Actually they are very much doing that as we speak. The process is underway. Early stages/native agitation, UN pleas...all the things leftists do to overthrow.
