Obama is planning on selling the blueprints to our B2 bomber.
China has been unable to develop stealth tech on their own thank God, but Obama thinks it is ok to give it to them so they will forgive some of our dept.
Why not just do what China will do sell to any country that has got the money to buy it. My God what are we doing the President took an oath to protect and defend the United States of America, not sell to sell our defense secrets to countries that would use it against us.
According to the deal, the United States would sell the plans for the B-2, along with radar-absorbing paints and metals in exchange for $50 billion in debt relief. The B-2 cost the US government $23 billion to develop the bomber in the 1980s.
According to the Administration, this proposal will help the United States resolve its debt issues. They point out their belief that the B-2 bomber is "strategically obsolete", according to a source in the White House Press Office. In addition, the source claims that the Chinese would be unable to create their own functioning stealth bomber fleet for "at least eight years."
American allies Taiwan, Japan, and South Korea are very wary of the proposal. Koo Syi, a geopolitical analyst from South Korea, points out that this technology could be passed to China's allies. This was the case when Chinese nuclear technology was transferred to Pakistan and North Korea. According to Koo, Obama has rendered US allies' opinions as "irrelevant."
While this proposal is controversial, it is not being presented to Congress, where it could meet with stern opposition. Instead, the State Department has been informed to assist the Defense Department with the transfer of materials.

Hard to believe but here is an article on it:

[quote]On April 1st, President Obama spoke to Chinese Premier Hu Jintao during the G20 Summit. During this meeting, Mr. Hu expressed interest in writing off some of the US debt in exchange for military technology. The President has since referred the matter to Defense Secretary Robert Gates.
The Defense Department is reportedly furious with the President's proposal to sell blueprints of the B-2 Spirit stealth bomber to the People's Republic. Gates has flatly rejected the President's plan, but has since been asked to step down if he will not facilitate the process.

Should this happen, all those involved in selling of this military technology (or similar) should be prosecuted for Sedition and/or Treason.
If indeed Mr. Obama even entertained such an idea with the Chinese, it would be grounds for Impeachment. Congress needs to pursue this.
Obama should just go straight to prison.....
