This article should be very revealing to Obama followers. He completely blew this whole thing out of proportion to look good on camera. Same ole' game.
Wake up , America. There is still so much to be revealed about Obama. Put someone in office who at least knows what they are talking about.

As my other comment didn't show up, I'll say it again; Shortages have been in the news for YEARS. This is BS. Looks like the pentagon is worried a democrat will get in & investigate their butts, like where are the NINE BILLION MISSING DOLLARS? hmmmmmm?

FTA:
"The captain, who spoke on background because he's still active duty, said that his unit temporarily had to replace their .50-caliber turret-mounted machine gun with a weapon seized from the Taliban because they couldn't get a needed part fast enough.
He did not say that any of the shortages contributed to any combat casualties in his unit. But he said any shortage, whether in training or combat operations, was inexcusable for the U.S. military."
Sounds like Obama got it right to me.
