In Air Force Materiel Command the large depot contracts are already competed with a mix of Civil Service/Contractor personnel. For the Engines, Tinker won the contract with Lockheed Martin on the old Kelly SA-ALC workload!

Will get source for article as soon as it is on line!

The new title for this article by Fournier is "Bush Puts 850,000 Federal Jobs up for Private Sector Bids"! Guess other title wasn't good enough!

Here is the link:

First Pelosi is confirmed as the leader of the Rats, then the Senate Judiciary committee approves a couple of Bush's nominees, and now this.

It just keeps getting better and better. I think I'll just sit here with a stupid grin on my face for a while:^)

Just wait until they start working the budget like a Corporation. Line-item should make a TON of pork sizzle away.

Nice... If he keeps this up, Bush will surely begin making believers out of his skeptics. And make his base pretty darn happy.

Hmmm ... do you know what a Section 8 is? It is one of many forms of corruption in the "competitive bidding" system. In addition to the pain and agony of section eight and all the paperwork and bonding needed know that bids are often written in such a way that the CO or other Federal pensionaire can kick anyone he/she's not "happy wirh" dead, should they *magically* happen to win the bid.

I hope this isn't the "Help Put a Federal CO's Kid through an Ivy League College and Provide a Summer Home at a Decent Resort" Act. When white male owned small companies start getting a good number of these jobs, let me know. Then I'll raise a toast.

Very good Idea, as long as the Contractors are held accountable to certain standards. As in, US citizens only, must speak fluent english and must possess more then a 1st grade education. None of this PC cr*p that is still prevelant in the airline industry and lots of other civilan(and Union) government jobs.

This isn't JUST wonderful because it will save money and make government more efficient. It ALSO is brilliant politically -- it reduces the numbers in government unions and dries up a huge source of funding for the demonrats!!!!

Now, if Bush just gets tort reform passed and hoses the trial lawyers!!! (But ABCNNBCBS still thinks W is so dumb - hahahahahahahahaha)

Uh Oh...... look out now.... I can just hear the wailing and gnashing of teeth....

This is a payback and furtherance of the NWO, Corporate donors, moving closer to the one world government, etc. Better get someone to file some lawsuits looking at what he said and who advised him on this thing "because no one is above the law".... Yep, onward and upward and let the losers be damned..... lol.
