Must admit to having a good laugh at this...but only after I read the article

Quote:

WASHINGTON — Citing “disastrous” management of the F-35 development program and “obvious, catastrophic failings” in the aircraft itself, the Air Force and Marine Corps will jointly announce this afternoon the cancellation of the most expensive procurement project in history, sources have told Duffel Blog.

Gen. Mark A. Welsh III, Air Force Chief of Staff, and Gen. Joseph Dunford, Commandant of the Marine Corps and nominee to be the next Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, will make the announcement together at the Pentagon at 5:30pm.

If I should put our government or their commission into a love story it would look like this

The girl is overwhelming in love with her boyfriend. She can't see all the errors and mistake he has made-He is everything she need in her life.

Back to real life

The Danish government are Sooo keen on getting this F35-that it looks like a young girl in love.

If only they could find someone E-5 or below to blame for the entire mess they'd have their face saving way out.
