I think Bush should frame it just this way also. They are the high bid, they are the most experienced company, they have the money and are willing to invest in the upgrades and yet we say they are not qualified. Why? Instead of a Muslim company lets say it was a black owned company, would politicians be clamoring to nullify that contract? If we are going to be honest the absolute only complaint anybody can come up with here is that it's a Muslim corporation and if that isn't racism I don't know what is. If I were Bush I would point that out loud and clear because until it was pointed out to me I was on the band wagon.

Aw, come on! Are you actually advocating we give this contract to a company controlled by North Korea?

This is absurd. A blind man can see their are perfectly valid concerns here.

Funny, Tim. I don't remember any Brits or Canadians ramming jets into US buildings and killing thousands of our citizens. I also don't remember masses of Brits or Canadians cheering those acts. Do you? I don't remember thousands of Brits and Canadians answering a call from a crazed maniac to kill Americans. Do you?

Those people want their way back into our respect and caring? They're going to have to earn it. They lost it on 9/11/2001.
