Marco: Sequestration Hurting the Blue Angels in Florida (Fox News)

the skies over Pensacola beach unusually quiet over the weekend with the blue angels grounded due to budget cuts and sequestration Florida

but it's symbolic of a government that has its priorities out of war even more senior economics writer wallstreet journal a

but it seems to be a you can take the bluing think about the cutbacks were blue angels no more shows and

really make bigger and terms of the symbolism for how the federal government these decisions on what the co and where I think go

is an build up in the last three months I bill you cover the stories that White House satirist of office being closed down a memory we

angels it's a it's about and what he million dollars forty million dollar program and and that's a tiny fraction of obviously as you know the

kids and I go out to Andrews airforce base here in Washington we watch our men is just a glorious day by the way builds a lot of support for

the military so I think I think is very short but this is what Rubio Santa cost twenty eight million dollars according to his figure

right that's less than one percent of the total cuts made to the navy's operating budge and their two thousand thirteen budget year yeah

he's exactly right about that I mean this is something that I think is very popular with the public could build support for our military and

there's so many other ways you could billions of dollars of waste in the hi guys talking about building a thirty five million thirty

four million dollar complex in Afghanistan knowing that you know administrations going take a military out of that country one

more point here in the last hour alone we were told at the Thunderbird birds will wire I think they're based out of Virginia did you see that story I

a wonderful thing and again I think it's it's something that Americans like to see how their taxpayer

dollars are being spent I guess most if they if they made a reversal in the Thunderbirds will see whether or not the blue angels and Marco Rubio get their way of

course thank you Steve that's why it's good you brought a because of this but well tell how most of the last thing we need is another King George from her unknot were totally dissimilar good ones you've

been
