What's this? More war profiteering by Halliburton? Nothing says "support the troops" like charging for meals that you didn't provide. Betcha didn't know that a French judge's investigation into charges of bribery while Cheney was head of Halliburton could lead to his being charged with "misuse of corporate assets." Damn that liberal media!
Well, it's a good thing that Halliburton was awarded another $1.2 billion contract to repair the Iraqi oil facilities. They did such a good job importing gasoline from Kuwait that the military terminated the contract. And let's not forget the shenanigans with Halliburton folks accepting $6.3 million in kickbacks.
And if smoking marijuana means that you're supporting the terrorists, then one can only wonder what Halliburton is doing when they sell about $40 million a year worth of oil field services to the Iranian Government, or when under Cheney's watchful eye Halliburton was doing bidness with Saddam.

But what I'm really upset over is that they are going to seal, not destroy, Saddam's ultra-hightech underground batcave. Why? They want to prevent it from becoming a tourist attractoin. File this under things I could have been told before I booked a trip to Tikrit! Spring in the Sunni Triangle is to die for.
