Senators Trying to Get Barack Obama to Buy Some Badass Jets

This, to me, seems like a very reasonable request for the new president…

Senators are pressing President-elect Obama to allow the Air Force to continue buying F-22 Raptor fighter jets…

A group of 44 senators — 25 Democrats and 19 Republicans — sent Obama a letter with the request. Sen. Saxby Chambliss (R-Ga.), a defense authorizer who represents a state where Lockheed Martin builds the fighter plane, and Sen. Patty Murray (D-Wash.), a defense appropriator whose state is home to Boeing’s operations, headlined the letter.

Hey, senators! Take my word on it. It's not gonna work. Trust me.

I am constantly trying to get people to buy F-22 Raptor fighter jets, but they always end up going for something "more reasonable." Like a Kia or somthing.

People are so fucking boring.
