Current Events » in reply to Bush Awards $500 Million Contract to Supply Fighter Jets to Pakistan

"Just before Christmas, Congress enacted legislation to prevent the Administration from taking exactly this sort of reckless action."

Insanity.

Bush is just plain nuts. Like trying to sell our shipping ports to the Saudis and farming out security. Selling our airports to questionable allies. And now THIS? It smacks of the Godd Ole Boys Club again. Get a defense contract. Sell it to the Pakistanis with an American "aide". Yeah, and maybe the "aide" pays for it, and holds the Pakistanis hostage. But never you mind, the defense contractors get paid and the planes get built.

Who's making money here? Oh, some of the good ole boys at the defense industry.
Make hay while the sun shines. Bush only has another year to make weapons for war, then start them.
What an idiot. I hope the uproar on this STOPS this illegal and insane action.
Pardon me while I go throw up.
