- Well, no one can blame the US for investigating the prevelent corruption rife over there at the moment, but maybe you should start at home first? :rolleyes:

Why does this story stink of Lockheed and the the US displaying another case of 'sour grapes'? I can easily picture a few execs and politicians huddled together lamenting the loss of the contract, and scheming on how to get even with those damn Brits.

Guess I have really become quite the cynic of late. Damn you, Cheney!

Do not be so uncharitable, Halo. Our justice system has only recently resolved one of the most pressing multi-million dollar cases (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/06/25/AR2007062500443.html?hpid=topnews) to come before our nation's courts. I pray that this victory will alleviate some of Bylimet's cynicism.

LOL, I read that in the paper today. I hope they are hitting the guy for the court costs, for wasting the courts' time with such frivolous crap.

I hope that guy pays for those dry cleaners lawyers and time they had to spend dealing with that stupid law suit....I cant believe it ever made it past a filing it to go before a judge. I wonder if the lawyer did it just for the publicity of it all so he can get more clients and build is practice .... woud not surprise me.

Sadly it was when i learned of the horses behind the Bush band wagon 99 that i became opposed to his candidacy.

I saw Cheney, Rumsfeld and other and just knew electing Bush was nothing more than Nixon 2.0 want an idea of how these guys operated the business of goverment over 30 years ago? check the "family jewels" files released by the CIA just today.

Cheney redefines the word corrupt. hell he makes a Fox Mulder conspiracy theory look tame by comparison.
gotta agree with Bylimet here. this is political pay-back of some sort for not playing ball.
