DPW Out, Halliburton In. I hate being right all the time

[Cleetus]

I was telling my other half the other night that Halliburton would get the ports deal. This was before anyone suggested it. With these corrupt assholes, it was a no-brainer. Now, it looks like I may have been right.

God, being right all the time sucks. Just watch and see. Another monster no-bid jobbie for these miserable bastards.

1. I said the same thing last week.

It sucks being right all the time, doesn't it?

[Cleetus]

5. sure does (eom)

[electropop]

2. Goddamned shitheads.

If our Dems don't scream bloody murder, they deserve to be a minority.

[fujiyama]

3. Not exactly much of a surprise

Everything is pretty predictable now anyways.

You knew this had to go to some Bush crony or the other. It was inevitable.

4. Eller, a company that complained about the deal, originally...

...is supposedly in the running. And I heard that Hallinurton has no subsidiaries with the proper experience. Of course, a detail that minor would never stop Bigtime and Chimpy from handing it over to them. :eyes:

6. When Do These Fuckhead Just......

RESIGN.......and just cash in and go and enjoy life and their scamming og America so we can try and get back to the BIZ of running government.

10. Lou Dobbs

I heard about this on the tube this afternoon, maybe Lou Dobbs. Not sure, but I did hear it.

8. Worse yet, still no port security.

It does not matter who runs the port if there is no security.

9. Carlyle is suppose to be setting up a company just for this purpose

Problem is, UAE is also an investor in Carlyle. If Carlyle gets the contract, they will subcontract everything out and the UAE still gets what they want from the deal - access!

11. Carlyle

That wouldn't surprise me a bit. Do you think the UAE connection to Carlyle had anything to do with the chimp giving the keys to the UAE, on the sneak, no less.

[Sydnie]

12. Wouldn't be the least bit surprised n;/t

[shance]

13. Problem is these companies profit off of disasters/ terrorist attacks

Thats the problem. And now they have the keys (ie ports) to the "safes" (ie. our cities)?
