This totally sucks in the most heartbreaking way. Pentagon successfully tests hypersonic flying bomb WASHINGTON — The Pentagon on Thursday held a successful test flight of a flying bomb that travels faster than the speed of sound and will give military planners the ability to strike targets anywhere in the world in less than a hour...

Now that's just cool. How in the world can it be heartbreaking? They just came up with a weapon that can save countless lives of American Servicemen and women. How is that a bad thing?

So this might just keep contries like Iran from ever using the nukes they will soon have. I see this as a good thing..

Be nice if the whole world would stop plotting and planning to blow each other up. All that money, time and resources could be put to so much better use. Thank you.

They have been working on this little project for years. Just keeping up with the Russian, Chinese, and Indian Joneses, who have been working on similar "fast first strike" weapons. They want something besides an ICBM with a conventional warhead which is as fast, but which shows up as a nuclear weapons launch on the worlds radar screens, and is a bit pricier to use, both in terms of dollars and politically. Funding for this particular toy was allocated years ago under Bush the Younger, anyone not liking it should have complained then.

Yes Willbeur, it's a definite waste of money to try and educate our children. Do you ever read the crap you write before you post it? That attitude is why this country is falling far behind other nations in education standards and why they are overtaking us because we have an uneducated workforce.

Which is all true, but you have to convince the rest of the world. Because as it stands we do need to defend ourselves.

~FR over $2000 per person is spent on defense in this country. And people want to talk about waste in education?

I don't think it is everyone in the world plotting to blow each other up. It is mostly us. Some strange fascination with murdering people that permeates our society.

You really don't know much about the world, do you? Clearly you've never served even a single day in the military or you'd know the utter bullshit that you're spewing. There are at least 3 separate and very large regions with people who have been warring non-stop for centuries. Guess what. Not even one of them is our region. Not that I'd expect you to know that. Just sit there in your own lil room in your own lil city, trying your best to look all "thug-like" in your avatar and leave the real issues to those equipped to handle them.

Well there are no cost-overruns on schools say like the $350 BILLION at the pentagon during the fiscal conservative's [sic] 8 years in office. Defense of the country ? Really ? Hardly. Education of the country ? Who in power fuck'n cares about that ? We are here to make some fucking money people, that's all that matters in America and the pentagon is what's known as a cash cow.

Federal money on education is largely pissed away. Money doesnt improve education. Smaller class sizes doesnt improve education. Family and self motivation improves education. The Federal Government is too far removed from where education is delivered to be effective.

No, if I were going to be clear I would have included "administered by a Department of Education long overrun by liberals and union leaders who's primary purpose is to line their own pockets and to keep their cronies in power in DC."

I'm wondering if the engine technology can be scaled up and used for commercial cargo and passenger freight. It would be a nice spin off.
