This is not accurate. They have been using robots for at least 7 years….It’s that they are now pulling off the skin suits.
Davod Gergen Calls Out McCain on Racism
Gergen notes that he grew up in the south, and says that it is blindingly clear to him that the purpose of these ads is to cast Obama as “Uppity”.

Is There Pentagon Electronic Warfare Deficit?
Stephen Trimble is reporting that the Pentagon is concerned that its current generation of EW gear will not be able to cope with later models of Russian SAMs.
The S-300 and S-400 systems (SA-12, 20, 21, 23) have the potential even the existing ALQ-99, which is carried by dedicated jammers, the EA6B Prowler and F/A-18G Growler.
I’m not sure how much this is Pentagon budget sucking, and how much is real needs myself.
He also posted a neat Youtube (it’s about an hour long) on the history of electronic warfare in the Silicon Valley:
Andrea Fracking Mitchell Calls McCain Ad “Literally Not True”?
What has happened to the golden boy of the press corps?
Have we entered a good sort of Bizarro world where the media starts to realize how much they are in the tank for McCain?

Pratt Whitney’s Geared Turbofan Cleared for Flight Testing
The ground test program is largely complete, so P&W will be flying the engine shortly.
To celebrate, the Pratt and Whitney sales team came up with the stupidest promotional film I’ve ever seen for an aviation product, which truth be told, says a lot.
Ducted Fan Helo- X-49A -Video
It’s a Blackhawk with a vector ducted fan and wings.
I think that it’s promising technology, perhaps more promising than the tilt rotor tech.

Not too much information, just some aircraft pr0n.

This is very amusing.
US Air Force Association Scare Video
It’s about 12 minutes long, and it’s a USAF general’s wet dream.
What’s not mentioned is that the current USAF training and doctrine have hurt, rather than helped in Iraq and Afghanistan, and that the next generation fighters that they tout are simply too expensive to field or use in reasonable numbers.

The Curious Case of the Corrupted Campaign Clip
Well, it now appears that the clip showing Mickey Kantor using the term “White N***er” is a fabrication.
It appears that Youtube clip was fabricated using footage from the 1993 documentary The War Room, or so the sources around the net say.
The editor of the clip claims that did not alter, but he did “enhance” the sound.
The interesting thing is not that someone, either as a deliberate deception or because they wanted to hear that, made a bogus clip. What is of concern is that it became the screaming point of the blogosphere.
Please, chill out.
