You know, my dad works for one of these companies, not Lockheed Martin but another similar one and my parents vote Republican every Election day because, "it keeps your father working."

I've often said, "If they can't get a contract through the 'free market', they don't deserve to stay in business. Telling me that voting Democratic will lose you your piece of the corporate welfare dime isn't a convincing argument to me."

You can only imagine the fireworks that ensue...
