================== Not ghost writing for Chuck by any means, but I spent enough time on K Street in DC to know that the people who want the F-35 will be unmoved by moral arguments and will, when pressed, put their own spin on moral terms to justify the massive waste of intellectual effort/labor time. Would you use a moral argument to dissuade the trade unions that will be involved in building them?
