U.S. Gives No-Bid Contract to Halliburton To Expand Guantanamo Bay Jail Halliburton subsidiary Kellogg, Brown & Root has been awarded a no-bid contract to expand the U.S. military base at Guantanamo Bay. The extra space will allow the U.S. to hold 10 percent more detainees at the base.

now we subvert the Geneva Convention.

:grr: :grr:

does the term war profiteering mean anything?


funny how this concentration camp seems to have just quietly been accepted and approved by the public, huh?

You got to hand it to SHRUB, he is imitating history by apponting Halliburton to get all the concentration camp work.






The original Hoechst A.G., sprang from I.G. Farben who manufactured the zyclon-B and later the much deadlier cyclos-B gas for use in Nazi death camps

Wonder what the slogan above the gates of SHRUB'S concentration camp reads ????

...when the world starts the Nuremburg trials against us, we'll just differ to Halliburton.

i mean, i know "why" halliburton always gets these contracts, but why are there no other contenders?? surely someone has complained!

while the general public is bombarded with stories about the cali gov's race, laci peterson, guns at work, missing children (which by the way is way down but the media spotlight has increased a thousand fold), and the squash festival in iowa, the wonder bush team not only has given this to it's buddies, but today they also announced that older coal burner plants no longer need to adhere to clean air standards thus making retooling their plants cheaper while they charge 50% more.

when are people in this country going to get tired of all this crap, quit watching 18hrs of 'reality' tv a day and do something... most likely never....

sad, very very sad... only 15 months we must make sure that it's such a land side for anyone but bush!!!!

mobilize!!! please

let's get angry, dammit!!! :-)


:hi:

...it's part of the 'deferred compensation' package he set up for himself before he appointed himself Vice President.

It was called "runnin' wide open," and referred to moonshiners who were very public and above-board about their illegal hooch making. Usually the person or persons doing the moonshine business were either themselves big shots in little towns or had paid off the local authorities, which allowed them to operate freely.

You know, there once was a time in this country when such brazen self-dealing as this would have invited some critical comment from the media. No, really!

Lordy, I feel old.

at what amounts to fiscal mismanagment at best and outright theft at worst. Perhaps Michael Moore can make a movie about this!

This is outrageous!!!

:kick:

kellogg Brown and Root have combined been America's war contractor for 40 years. Hardly ever missing an opportunity to make money when American Bullets fly. Some might say they are now heavily involved in policy making which is leading to ever more opportunity for them.
