Default No more ADIZ F-16s

Jeez, a common sense decision from our leaders in gummint! They are turning
responsibility for chasing folks out of the Washington, DC ADIZ over to the
Coast Guard. Nice, slow, orange helicopters instead of F-16s...and with VHF
radios!

When I enlisted back in 1946, the USCG was part of the Treasury Department
and they even skipped paydays at the end of the fiscal year...now, under
Homeland Security, they have money running out of their ears.
