Tim D’Annunzio advocating armed insurrection?

Don't you just love government-hating assholes who got rich selling crap to the very same government they hate?

From the link Steve provided:

Paraclete stands to benefit from a company relocation facilitated by North Carolina Republican Congressman Robin Hayes, who serves on the House Armed Services Committee. In a story that appeared in the Raeford News-Journal Victoriana Summers writes:

Complete Parachute Solutions (CPS) would operate in tandem with Paraclete Aero, a new parachute equipment company opening near the Raeford airport in September, according to Congressman Robin Hayes, who helped arrange the deal. CPS will venture with Paraclete Aero, owned by Raeford resident Tim D'Annunzio. He is also president of Paraclete Armor and Equipment of St. Pauls, a manufacturer of body armor. Hayes was instrumental in the government appropriating $300,000 for purchasing military parachute equipment, ensuring CPS, based in Deland, Florida, could transfer its operation to Hoke.

"Congressman Hayes has worked very extensively with CPS officials in an effort to convince them to open a facility in North Carolina's 8th District," Jonathon Felts, a spokesman for Hayes, said. "Company officials noted that the Hoke area has a strong manufacturing base and also liked the location because of its proximity to Fort Bragg."

Hayes, also a member of the U.S. House Armed Services Committee, made the announcement on Monday. "National Security and economic security are my top two priorities," Hayes said. "I am pleased when both of those objectives can be met with one action. This is a great day for our economic security, but is also a good day for our national security."

SPECIAL NOTE: Three hours ago I checked this cached link. It was exactly as I've quoted it here. However, it's 7:31 EDT and I just checked it again. It's completely different. I have a hard copy of what I've posted here. Will call the paper to get a hard copy from them.

Earlier this year, in April 2004, Paraclete lost a lucrative GSA contract for protective vest systems to Eagle Industries (File B-293509). Then in May 2004 a solicitiation from the GSA mentions two models of Paraclete vests as part of another GSA bid solicitation (FBO #0895 SOLICITATION NOTICE). Are these the same vests? If so, the question becomes, why would the Army be requesting them if, in fact, they were originally rejected as not being up to the standards required by the GSA? Were design changes made in the 30 days between bids? Or is something else going on here?
