Congress hearings tomorrow re:Halliburton/Cheney connection
Edited on Mon Jun-14-04 01:28 PM by napi21
I received this from MoveOn.org regarding the influence Cheney had on securing the Halliburton no-bid contract to rebuild Iraq.

Should be interesting. Wonder if C-Span is going to cover it?

(snip)
The timing for our new ad exposing how Halliburton and Bush administration officials took taxpayers for a ride couldn’t be better. And starting tomorrow, Congress will be holding hearings on whether Halliburton used its close ties to administration officials to get sweetheart deals, shortchanging both our troops and U.S. taxpayers. Since Thursday afternoon, we've already raised about $420,000 to air the ad. But in order to get the ad in front of swing-state voters for a week starting tomorrow, we’ll need to raise about $1.1 million. Together, if we all pitch in what we can, we can make it happen.




Take a look at the finished ad and help get it on the air at:
