Lockheed has no exposure (as far as their legal department is concerned). IF Obama keeps his word, the taxpayers will fully cover any expenses.

I am not sure. An agreement to violate the law is unenforceable. So if Lockheed takes this deal, gets sued and loses, the federal government would not have to keep its promise to reimburse fines, penalties, etc. If Romney wins, we could expect that Lockheed would be out of luck. In the unlikely event Obama wins, it may be that a taxpayer would have standing to sue to block enforcement of this agreement. I sure don't want my tax dollars used for this.

As another poster also suggested, this agreement may not only be unenforceable, but also illegal.

Yep. But the caveat was as far as their legal department is concerned.

No mere citizen has standing in court. That was very thoroughly demonstrated every time a mere citizen tried to get a court, any court, to verify obama's alledged status as a Natural Born Citizen.
