The Obama Admin picked a Brazilian company with Iranian ties over an American outfit to produce a new military light attack aircraft. Now the Kansas company is going to court to find out why. Having a company controlled by the Brazillian govt and with connections to Iran produce US military equipment? What’re they, stupid? Well, that may be the best case scenario.

The most important part of a bid for a government contract is how much you are going to kick back to the politicians. Whether or not you can actually make and deliver a workable product is of no value.
Think I am being facetious? Then you are very naive.
Sounds to me like the spirit of Darlene Druyun (aka "The Dragon Lady") is alive and well at the Air Force.
This is about selling the security of this nation to our enemies. Nothing more, any one wish to wager that Soros has money in the Brazilian company as well. Just like the oil company in Brazil that now has all of the off shore oil rigs that once where in the Gulf of Mexico
Brazilian company? How much do you want to bet Soros is involved. "Dear Leader" dosen't do anything without Soros's approval.

Close. Warren Buffet does big business with Embraer.
I was thinking Obama might have a girlfriend in Brazil. First he sends them money to drill in the Gulf while preventing us from doing it, now this! Maybe he's got something going on with the daughter of a Brazilian politician?
"I was thinking Obama might have a girlfriend in Brazil."
Or boyfriend.
Well, we do still have to determine if he's a "top" or "bottom".
Since he throws baseballs like a girl, my magic 8-ball says that he is a catcher.
I agree, but didn't want to speak for everyone, plus I wanted to hear opinions. ;-)
Pretty sure Michelle pitches so that makes sense.
You mean Moochelle, don't you?
This administration is all about the money. "Pay to Play" is the entire lifeblood of the species Chicagous politicianis criminalis. If the msm was ethical (HA! I kill me sometimes), these things are easy to find, because none of them are that good at covering their tracks. They have to have a compliant media to spike the bad stories, and a large part of the backlash against these tools has to do with new media.
Was just reading an editorial recently about how "scandal-free" this administration is. Amazing, considering that it's been one continuous scandal from primary all the way to present.
The marxist dictator-in-chief once again weaking, damaging, and sabotaging our country as quickly as he can for the new world order to be able to some day walk right into our homes and haul all the patriots off to a concentration camp never to be seen or heard of again. When will someone help him take a departure from our freedom and constitutional rights? This nut has to go. He's a phycho. I spit in your face and damn your soul to hell you POS.
I am so glad my Navy career is over in less than 4 years. I tell people if I was just starting out, there is no way in hell I'd reenlist.
Thank you for your service. I have heard the same thing from a number of young men and women who served and got out and got into my business, Law enforcement....
Had I stayed in the military, I would have retired this year (2011) with 30 years time in service! None too soon considering what leftard Obummer is pulling.
hope enchained.
Hmmmm.... September 12, 2011 report by FT.com excerpt here; "...the aviation group and head of the Brazilian Defence and Security Industries Association...the contract, enabling Brazil to produce fully the Super Hornet."
Seems Brazil is now contracted to build some of our hardware. Not the first time this sort of business went on but still, with the story this thread is about, the link seems obvious. Embraer is a big company and the FT.com site has reports all about them and others where Embraer is mentioned in something less than a star billing.
Union labor is just too damn expensive. Trumka is going to have BHO's ass for this one.
Sadly, no. He'll drop by the "golf course", Barry'll blow him (figuratively speaking, but you never know...), and he'll go away happy.
I am amazed at how often the donks screw organized labor, and how organized labor just keeps on writing them checks. Then again, the rank-and-file don't really have a choice where their dues are spent, do they?
Maybe Obama could just give the unions another auto manufacturer. That would probably keep them quiet for a while.
...and once again, I am given cause to wonder: "just what the hell's wrong with these idiots?"
It never fails to amaze me how hard they work at being stupid.
It's not about being stupid, it's about people who hate America. We have elected the enemy.
