Dems Order THREE Elite Jets for Themselves-AirforceAsked for One..

CUTS to MILITARY--NO cuts for themselves..AND
FOLLOW the $$$-
Gulfstream based in GA--Rep Bishop (GA-D)..
How much does Gulfstream give to Dems?!!!

House approved nearly $200 million for the Air Force to buy three elite Gulfstream jets for ferrying top government officials and Members of Congress.

The Air Force had asked for one Gulfstream 550 jet (price tag: about $65 million) as part of an ongoing upgrade of its passenger air service.........

Rep. Sanford Bishop (D-Ga.) had submitted a request to the Appropriations Committee for a $70 million earmark for one airplane on behalf of Georgia-based Gulfstream, and Rep. Jack Kingston (R-Ga.) lists the airplane as one of the earmarks that he was asked to request, though his office said he never made the request to the Appropriations Committee.

“The committee saw fit to fund it at that level” without Kingston’s involvement, his spokesman said.

Bishop’s office did not return several calls requesting comment for this story.

Air Force spokesman Vincent King told Roll Call: “This line item provides funding to purchase C-37 aircraft. The C-37 is the military variant of the commercial Gulfstream 550 executive jet. C-37s provide executive airlift for senior U.S. government officials including Congress and combatant commanders.”

The language of the appropriations bill specifies that of the three aircraft, the Air Force will provide “one aircraft each for the 201st Airlift Squadron and the 89th Airlift Wing.” Both are based out of Andrews Air Force Base in Maryland.

WASHINGTON (AP) - Defense officials say two nuclear-powered Russian attack submarines have been patrolling in international waters off the East Coast for several days.

The officials tell The Associated Press that while they haven't seen such unusual activity since the Cold War, the military is not overly concerned. They say the Russians have a right to conduct naval exercises and are operating according to international law.

I've Learned More about the Computer ...


See Post below for STORY of one of our BEST!!!

PS-I've learned how to move photos (and make them smaller) from one place to another! YEH....

Beyond PRICE-Thanks to One of Our BEST....

Read the following explanation before looking at the picture!��



Most Syrians struggle to even� read Arabic, much less have a� clue about�reading English.���



So, how do a group of Syrian protest leaders create the most impact with their signs by having the standard 'Death To Americans'(etc..) slogans printed�� �in English?


Answer:

They simply hire an English-speaking civilian to translate and write their statements into English.




Unfortunately, in this case, they were unaware that the 'civilian' insurance company employee hired for the job was a retired US Army Sergeant! Obviously, the results were PRICELESS!

This picture is not doctored.



Some day I'll be able to C/P to fit the photos...
The last sign says:PLEASE KICK OUR ASSES..

West Point-TOP Ratings...Again!!!


Cadets on Parade on "The Plain" in front of Eisenhower, Washington and MacArthur Halls.


WEST POINT – The Princeton Review has ranked West Point as having the “Most Accessible Professors” and in the top 10 of all American colleges in the areas of “More to Do on Campus”, “Don’t Inhale”, “Most politically active students’ and “Best classroom experience.”

“We are very proud of our nationally renowned education program and attribute much of our success to such factors as accessibility of faculty, lively classroom discussions and experiences, and enrichment opportunities outside the classroom,” said Dean of Academics Brig. Gen. Patrick Finnegan. “Our small class size, where every course from freshman through senior years is taught in seminar sized groups of no more than 18 cadets, increases the engagement of faculty with students and enhances the overall educational experience.”

The Princeton Review (not affiliated with Princeton University ), an education services company known for its test prep courses, includes USMA in its annual book, “The Best 371 Colleges.”
