good point, I wonder where all the "flamers" are regarding this... Does Obama or Biden have a secret link to Haliburton - maybe huge stockholders?... I'm familiar with what Haliburton does and the Obama admin could have brought in someone different - but the way the contracts are arranged Haliburton is the only one that can fulfill it... Talk about the pot calling the kettle black.
This Obama fella is a conservative dream come true. Tax cuts, wars, big spedning, prayer days, Halliburton contracts.....all this things they always wanted.
So when does the left turn on the conservative dream?

Care to direct us to the posts showing your outrage when Bush was sending out all those no bid contracts?
I did not oppose no bid contracts during Bush and do not do so now.
haluburton or Saudi oil are the only 2 companies that could perform the contract. I prefer the jobs going to Americans
The question becomes the left did oppose them with Bush but why no outrage now?
So if ther eis no difference, why are the left not all over him?
Because Obama haters do the Obama hating and Bush haters do the Bush hating. It has nothing to do with the fact that the policy is the same regardless of who is in the white house.

So the jobs should go to Americans regardless of cost?
This at the same time Bush was telling us outsourcing jobs overseas was a good thing for our economy?
You're very pro-union I take it, regardless of cost?
