This post was written by Bill Whittle, but I think it was meant for folks like Sharon and Elvis, and few others around here.
As Bill says:

Look at this beauty: The B-58 Hustler. The video is about as old as I am but the old girl still looks good for her age, doesn’t she?

First Commentary by Bill Whittle at his new website, www.billwhittle.com.

FTA:

This is what government is, and this is what government does: it is a responsibility-avoiding, perpetual motion machine. That’s why even the most capable areas of Government – the military – swim in nicknames like SNAFU, FUBAR and BOHICA.
If I were shopping for health insurance, and I had tried, and failed, to log on to a web site twice – not forty times, but twice! – they would have lost my business and I would have taken my money to a competitor in the not unreasonable belief that if these people are so incompetent that they can’t even take my money then maybe I shouldn’t be trusting them with my daughter’s heart transplant.”
