Haliburton is too big to fail? There's no competition in that field? Curious indeed!

Oh, my, my, my.

WHERE, in the name of heaven, are all the frothing mad leftists, spewing their vitriol on the issue?

That's going to be true of many companies, if you want a stealth fighter built it's not like you can go down to Wal Mart and pick one up.

That’s right Boys & Girls…I said Halliburton!

So, start flaming 0bama, like you all did to Bush.



It's not like 0bama has not broken campaign promises not to give no bid contracts before, here was one he gave to one of his democrat buddies:

Hmmm, what has 0bama said about no bid contracts and Halliburton before?:

So, start worshipping 0bama, like you all did Bush.

You miss the idea here, we are going to all sit back and watch the likes of you spew venom and hatred at your precious 0bama for doing the same exact thing that you and your ilk reviled Bush for doing....

...unless you are all just pure partisan hacks


BTW:
Obama ♥ Halliburton

Halliburton is the biggest contractor in Iraq, they provide services that were previously done by military personnel. The Army and the Obama administration had no choice in the matter. The change in contractors would be a huge logistics problem for them. Give it a rest, it was the Bush/Cheney administration that brought them there is the first place, partially privatizing the military forces.

Excellent comrade! Never thought we could sneak in a "Bush's fault" in this thread on Obama's watch!

Uh, most intelligent leftists realize that Obama is a center-right corporatist much in same vein as most of our recent presidents, which is why we laugh while you and your crew try to frame him as a far left radical. This is par for the course for the Obama administration, absolutely complicit with the corporate elites, if somewhat less egregious about it.
