Um if the tech is 20 to 30 years out of date it seems a bit on to level that against the guy that's only been in the White House for 8 years?
Do his predecessors not also bear that blame as well?
-Clinton had just gotten us out of war. He brought a good portion of our machines back and put them in the garage.
-Bush was trying to upgrade the existing machines we had with modern technology after 9/11.
-Obama comes around and retires a good portion of machines that could have been retro fitted with modern technology like Bush was trying to do.
Then cancels a deal with Lockheed Martin to produce new planes(off topic: Lockheed Martin had a factory down here also, guess what happened after the lost contract...more jobs lost thanks to Obama) We can go on about Obama giving our weapons to our enemies and cutting our troops drastically, but that would really take this off topic.
Now don't get me wrong. Obama has done
some good in advancement of war tech. Cyber warfare and Drones are a perfect example.
Bush could have replaced a lot of our stuff too, but the time of war is not the time to start producing war machines. Since Obama has "gotten us out of war", right now would be a perfect time to rebuild, not retire and give everything else away.
What are we going to do when the war hits the ground on our land? We have less to work with machines and troops and Military Bases. They shut a few bases down, here. One has been bought and is being turned into a Movie Studio owned by Tyler Perry. A lot of good that is goin to do us.
Even though NK stuff is out of date, they are not stopping production. You can die from a gun regardless of its age. But Ships, Subs and Tanks need modern radar and weapon systems to survive.

I have to say, I hate how y'all like to find that one line to criticize, instead of reading the point...
I probably should leave them out, but I'm entitled to my opinion right?

Now I need to vent. A lot of people who have not been affected by Obama see him as the best President ever. I don't. I have sat here and watched this state fall apart since that man became President. I voted for him, I drank the kool-aid, now lets see what the next man can do...
