The Air Force claims they must dump the A-10 Warthog because of budget cuts so the can dump the $5 Billion savings into that stupid bottomless pit called the F-35A Joint Strike Fighter. They claim they can do the A-10's job with other aircraft.
But last year Congress appropriated money for the A-10 and asked the GAO(Government Accountability Office) to check out the Air Force claims.
Now the GAO says to the Air Force, liar-liar-pants-on-fire.
If you don't think this belongs in "Politics" you're mistaken.
