Remember the first round of BRAC??? Dellums and Feinstein ****ed
everyone off so much for years that the commission closed down the
whole Bay Area!! I would hope that Boxers' name never even comes close
to the BRAC equation during the next round........

Completing those tankers at Palmdale would draw quite a bit of political
support; Boxer needs to save her job.


And Bush will save her?

OK, if by 2010 the Super Hornet is the last tanker platform left in
the US Military, will they put a refueling probe on the front of the
B2? (I suppose the Marines will have some KC-130Js also if the Air
Force can't buy any more tankers. ;-)
