Type in Hunter and defense contracts and see what you come up with.

Only reason I knew anything about it was money was taken from Tinker AFB for a program that DoD didn't want. That led me to start searching more after he announced.

I don't view this as a negative. And I don't view it as a scandal. He's been aggressively pro high tech weapons. Hes' from San Diego. He represents active duty military (lots in his area), retired military and some local military contractors. Saying the Pentagon didn't want stuff when Xlinton was Pres and appointing One-Worlders and Bilderbergers like Wesley "Weasel" Clark to say what they did want is a PLUS.

The only articles I could find were ones from Left Wing Rags, like the Ultra Liberal paper in San Diego which has done everything except hide a reporter under his bed to discredit him. And it hasn't worked.

It looks and smells like a bullsh*t charge to me. Which is not to say Hunter has much of a chance, he doesn't. The big media won't even mention his name.

You'll get two CFR vetted candidates, just like always. Thanks for playing.

I see you answered the question I asked a few minutes ago. If you follow the leads from the Tinker case, there's several more being investigated too.

Here is a nice long article from the NY Times about Hunter and defense procurement. His position at the time was that the DOD should buy American. His attempts to force that into defense authorization pissed off some in the Pentagon. Like much of FedGov the servants of the people bristle at having to be subject to the legislature.

I did, and not much came up.

So what, the liberals at madcowprod.com don't like him?

If you want me to see a specific article, which one ?
