Two Plus Three Equals Five

That's five jets lost by the U.S. military in the last year. There may be one or two more that we're lost in training exercises, but I'm not talking about those. I'm talking about the complete incompetence of DODefence(not war)Secretary Pete Mr. tough guy kegsbreath. Three jets were shot down a few days ago by friendly fire in Kuwait. Where's the communication? Then last year the navy lost two fighter jets off of an aircraft carrier. These jets cost tens of millions of dollars. Anyway Secretary Pete Mr. tough guy discusses me. The way he talks to and about serious military personnel and how he'll fire Generals and others just to show them who's boss. He's a fucking idiot and unfit to serve as Secretary.
