and since were on the subject, I'll say this--I'm no fan of the ridiculous levels of Pentagon and Defense spending that we have reached, but I will concede the following:

To build shit the RIGHT way, costs more
We don't ALWAYS build the right things for the right reasons (F-22 Raptor/JSF, anyone?)
When we DO decide that something needs to be built, and built right, HOLY GOD do we build some impressive shit...WHALES have trouble finding our Submarines. Iran's Pastel Navy won't be a problem, I don't care HOW impressed they are with it.
