Aren't these the guys that electrocuted several of our soldiers in the showers they built in Iraq? (why they had electricity running in the shower is beyond me)...and they have been blatantly ripping off the American people in Iraq...

1. I had to look at a map to find Pineville. It's near Charlotte, close to SC.

Since that area is beyond a doubt the putrid anus of this fine state, it's safe to say that lots of folks down that way could take a bit of electrocution and we'd all be better off for it.

6. Exactly

Charlotte and environs is private for profit healthcare "heaven" so it doesn't surprise me that KBR would be involved. I stay as far way from there as possible.

3. It's the newest treatment...

Electro Shock Showers. In every room!

[blm]

4. KBR (Halliburton) was also in charge of the refueling of the USS Cole when it was bombed by

terrorists posing as fuelers.

Funny how corporate media IGNORED that little fact while discussing Cole or Cheney's privatization role in refueling logistics AND as head of Halliburton/KBR.

But, then, the corpmedia are PAID to look the other way for their corporate masters, aren't they?

5. Good luck with the drinking water.

KBR "supported the troops" by giving them sewage water to drink.
