Pentagon Pays $998,798 for sending two 19-cent washers to Texas

They didn't need to be low bidder. They were "female."

That trumps "low bid."

I need to get a government contract for washers!!!!!

You cross-reference and analyze and you come to know that some sources are more accurate than others. This comes with experience.

In ATS, John Lear is considered to be an expert on this and related subjects.

Henceforth, I direct your inquiries on this matter to him.

Another question: what would be the purpose of keeping the public in the dark about an extraterrestrial threat? Also, if these guys know so much, why haven't they just disappeared?

Of course they were probably turned in by other contractors they were undercutting. Now I am probably only half joking, but gimme a break already, no-bid contracts mean exactly what they say. Now while they focus on this instance, are they going to lift one finger to find the missing $3-4 trillion missing in the mix of accounting? It looks like the Britney Spears and Anna Nicole Smith of the Defense Department and their version of distractions to me.
