My understanding is that the Thunderbirds are used for public entertainment and PR/recruitment. With our shrinking AF, why invest money in your program? We've already put Tops In Blues on hold to save some cash.

True, I just don't see how closing down fighter-bases or furloughing contractors takes a backseat to The Thunderbirds.

And really, I don't think anyone would miss TiB if they never returned.
