| "Some employees are simply irreplaceable. Take Michelle Obama, for
| example. The University of Chicago Medical Center hired her in
| 2002 to run "programs for community relations, neighborhood
| outreach, volunteer recruitment, staff diversity, and minority
| contracting." In 2005 the hospital raised her salary from $120,000
| to $317,000--nearly twice what her husband made as a U.S. senator.
| Oh, did we mention that he had just become a U.S. senator? He sure
| had. Requested a $1 million earmark for the UC Medical Center, in
| fact. Way to network, Michelle! But now that Mrs. Obama has
| resigned, the hospital says her position will remain unfilled. How
| can that be, if the work she did was vital enough to be worth
| $317,000? We can think of only one explanation: Roland Burris's
| wife wasn't interested."
|
|
| Dick Cheney was CEO of Halliberton, quit to become Vice President,
| but still gets "deferred compensation," bonuses and held stock
| until 2006.
|
| Halliburton received no bid contracts and cost plus contracts for
| their work in the Iraq war.
|
| Profiting from a war, especially one you were instrumental in
| starting, should **** you off.
|
| But it doesn't. Everything is Obama.
|
| War profiteering used to be a bad thing, but it's ok now. As long
| as you are a Republican, that is.
|
| Don't be an...... Clinton used Haliburton in the Balkans too, for
| the same reason.. Nobody else does what they do! Period...
| That wasn't a "no bid" contract.
|
| Who bid against them?
|
| Like most of the criticism, the Haliburton issue is a red herring
| manufactured by the opposition... Like most of these issues, they are
| criminalizing "government as usual", and in this case, have done exactly
| the same thing themselves... IE Tom Delay...
|
| This is only possible because of the full support of the Media. we are
| already seeing censorship and the stomping of the constitution with new
| rules against criticism in the senate and senators political speech,
| next it will be the rest of the media, just like I said long ago. We are
| in huge trouble..
|
|Oh, come on now. You can't possibly think that the
|Bush/Cheney/Halliburtion/Dubai debacle was on the up and up. No one
|except a complete opposite of Harry could think that!!!!!!

Oh, god.... at least one other person gets it!!!!

Amen, brother!
