Really loogie, no different than the no bid contracts used by Clinton in the Balkans.. One reason is, in some fields, such as security, and dare I say it "nation building", there are limited companies available, in many cases such as the latter, only one, Haliburton.. Clinton used Haliburton in Yugoslavia too, why? Because they are the only ones with the resources to walk in with everything from water, to security, to schools... period.. To the missing money, there was a good story a couple of years back with everyone winking and knudging knowing that a percentage of the rebuild money was going to pay off local militia and family leaders to accept the "new boss". In most cases it has worked out pretty good. Took a lot of good intel and interaction to know who to pay, and what to do next... You know how it goes, ever work in sales down south? You start with the house with the most columns on the front porch, once you got him, the whole town follows, you are a hero... Nothing new here, just the left is going to try to criminalize "politics as usual", a tool they have been using since the last Billary debacle. It has created a lot of distrust in the halls of congress... |

Besides, does this make it right that they can account for much of the money we as taxpayers gave them? *One reason is, in some fields, such as security, and dare I say it "nation building", there are limited companies available, in many cases such as the latter, only one, Haliburton..

But they are failing miserably, and money is unaccounted for. Lots of money.

If it were legit, they would have accounted for every penny. |
