Dispatch 30.1 – Shilling for the Liberal Agenda

"It seems J. Ivison doesn’t get it either. There is no other game in town. The F-35 is the only type available. There can be no better deal."

"Michael Ignatieff's Liberals and their coalition partners would cancel the deal to buy the F-35s. They would rather use kites to defend Canada than fighter jets,"said Dimitri N. Soudas

Somebody must know how these procurement programs like the F-35 and the old canceled EH101 work but I was under the impression that gov. money was paid as progress payments after certain research, design and production milestones were reached. Granted that defense contractors are high stakes poker players vs government amateurs, it still remains that program delays, lies about performance, and cost escalation are not rare items. It's not like buying a fleet of limos and writing a $16 billion dollar check on day one. It would be useful to remember that it was the Liberals who bought the disgusting Iltis toy Jeep as a Quebec built patronage item when the US Army was offering rock bottom price brand new surplus Humvees to our army from discontinued foreign aid programs . That was a tell.

I think we should use old marijuana-addled hippies to defend Canada while we are waiting for the F-35s. We could stack them as a barricade around our troops. Probably quite a few old NDPers would be useful to Canada for the first time.

Heck. We could buy a fleet of used Cessna single engine prop jobs, and equip them with Colt 45's, so the pilots could open the windows and shoot at their enemies.

Heck, we could even save money on the amunition for the Colts, and have them lean out the window pointing their weapons and yelling "bang" at their adversaries. That would scare them off.

That would help us remain "the true north strong and free."

And with cash in the bank, or maybe a reduction in our debt load, or maybe some new government programmes to bring more of our enemies over here to freeload off our welfare systems.

I smell a liberal plot to get more sympathetic voters.

Bang!! Gotcha!! Play dead.

I figured that once the liberal senator came out foursquare behind the purchase that we had heard the end of it. oh well, facts and common sense were never a guarantee of anything.

IF it where up to the J. Ivison's of the World, we would be buying Bi-planes from WW1. People like this hate the Military until someone invades.

Simus I am not sure how this contract is structured, I'm not even sure that data is public.

Goood line by Soudas Don, and I like that stacking idea PattyJ.

What about Beavers MB why not resurrect a Canuck classic;)

Iggy thinks he's drawing blood on this David, he won't let go until he loses his teeth.

Euro-fighter, the Typhoon, which is mainly air to air, and not a multi-roll ac like the F35, comes close, but unlike the F35, would not provide and jobs or future spin off jobs for Canada.

The spectre of the EH101 debacle is strong within Count Igulla.

Happy Holloween!
