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! |
