Congress writes acquisition law. All acquisitions are done in accordance with laws written by congress. If this yahoo wants the DoD to only consider US firms, then re-write the law, otherwise the DoD has its hands tied on the subject.

I would like to see a US-only approach but the DoD simply can't do that. Open competitive bids are the norm, sole source (SBA or 8A) are exceptions, and the norm allows for non-US bidders.

Sorry, my last post was meant for you. Do you think this is a valid point?
