Who is right, who is wrong? Read the GAO findings. What did the Air Force want in the first place? How do each criteria factor in? Did they want big or small? What is the truth?

They are just trying to put a sugar coating on the pill that they are eventually going to make us swallow. Gates wanted to make it “fair” to both companies. Well why don’t we insist on a rebid for every contract which is awarded? We will know what the competition bid and all their specifics, so we can get back to the drawing board and underbid them. Oh yes, “this is the fair and impartial way of bidding”.

Is the government working for Boeing or Boeing working for the government? Ask yourself. Better yet, ask your local congressional representative.

i am sorry mr. shelby, but this is crazy.
