YOU can REVERSE HALLIBURTON"S no-bid award for New Orleans
. You can do something about it, after things calm down a bit.

Get on the phone to your Repug and Dem Reps and rip them a new one
over it.

Tell them the connection between this government and Halliburton is such blatant corruption that you are ready to _____________whatever.

especially since Hallibrtuon has been caught cheating us by over $100 million in Iraq. They should not be allowed to even bid.

Demand that that rep/sen demand the contract be put up for bid.

1. Good idea
I called mine yesterday to demand a congressional inquiry. This time, I might just march over to his district office, which is a block from my office, and talk to the aides in person. Maybe even bring a sign or two, and some friends....

4. Got a link?
I find it hard to believe Halliburton has already been awarded a bid.

Not that it won't happen, but they haven't even figured out if it can be rebuilt or not.

9. My Critter is Duke Cunningham. Am I supposed to ask him to
stop corruption and profiteering? That's a good one.

11. YES Ms. Kitty - make him aware that Americans aren't as stupid as he & his
buds think...and that Americans are ready to remove the entire corrupt congress and take to the streets. Watch for the expression on his face.

12. Heard that on Malloy last night..This is GD BULLSHIT
What the FUCK,is Halliburton or KBR on the tip top of the short list every time there are billions to be plucked from the Government?

This isn't bidding for work,this is fucking Government CORRUPTION at its dead level best. If Dems in power don't SCREAM at the top of their GD lungs over this then I'm changing parties....
