I’m all for keeping jobs in the US, but why should we subsidize Boeing if they had the inferior product?

I don't think it was a matter of inferior product...perhaps price played a part and maybe, just maybe the state of Washington's far left wacko's like Patty Murray may have played a part......can you imagine...payback is hell

If a weak dollar is “supposed” to be great for US Products then how can Airbus beat the price?

Today the USD is but .065 of a EURO. and it’s sliding rapidly.

This is not the purchase of a computer system or public parks project but a Military defense project. 2nd largest one in USAF history.

The day that the US no longer allows us to make the bullets but expects our kids fight using nations that oppose us equipment - the pact is off!

It may be the only way to stop future off shoring of defense projects is to vote Barrack Huessin.

SAD, SAD day for America.
