Pathetic. I just do not understand how anyone, especially those who truly supports our troops or has military experience, can sit idly by and allow this to happen and NOT blame the President for it.
But it's all about partisanship isn't it? Fuck the troops, fuck what Halliburton is doing.... we can't admit the GOP is wrong and allowing this BS to happen out of greed, now can we?
Of course there's no truth in it, the Dems are just looking for problems..... the company that overcharged the military for fuel, and backlogged necessary materials, would never do such a thing...... right? So there is no need for investigations to se if there is any truth to this at all now is there?

From your freindly neighborhood Bush supporter:
It would be unwise for the current management team at Haliburton to instruct union employees to contaminate the water being sold at inflated prices to the military. If they did give union employees these instructions why hasn't anyone said anything? I assume they did not instruct employees to sell contaiminated water. It is possible there are other explanations, explanations that are not diabolical.
If the system of checks and balances have failed in Washington. The explanation has to be that Congress has failed. Congress controls the money.
There is no doubt that the GOP is greedy. Most people in the republican party will readily admit wanting more than what is needed for survival. I am greedy. I drive a car that can go 155 mph., I have a house with a spare bedroom, I consume more than 2500 calories per day. The more interesting issue is that some people acctually think they are not greedy, or that the democrats are not greedy. I say wow!!!
The point is not to fight greed, but is to understand it. Use it to your advantage. Or, as Yoda would say - Luke, use the force.
