"(edit) Oh, and Sherwood...only an ass would start a statement with: "Maybe Flintstone, who claims "......"
If Zman is on the prowl, let's see what his reaction is to my ass-talking.
Flint,
You can only obfuscate, not clarify, and when asked to explain, can only resort to name calling. Please attempt to explain why Halliburton/KBR are the only companies that can subcontract work to the unqualified (as verified by Mark, whom I assume is a qualified on-the-scene witness). According to our leaders, H&KBR are the only companies qualified to perform this function. According to reports, there were dozens and dozens of Iraqi and American companies who were qualified yet shut out of the bid process.
Why are these jobs being held by highly paid unqualified Americans instead of qualified "free" Iraqis? This, despite a "slight" unemployment situation in Iraq. Not that I have anything against working Americans, but if they can't cook and are thieves on top of that, then I have a problem with them cooking for me and our troops. And if they're cooking hot dogs and shredded, creamed beef for an inordinate amount of big bucks, that shows me this employer (KBR) doesn't really care about the cost to the American public other than cost + . Is it any wonder that underemployed cost + Iraqi drivers, cooks and ditch diggers don't seem to generate as much cost + toward KBR's bottom line? This bottomless pit of a war contract, exacerbated by companies such as is this is a classic example of corporate opportunism. I wonder if Al Quaida knew we'd also be ambushed by companies such as this. If KBR is being paid to help us, I decline the type of help they're providing.
But then again, as long as Flint, our govt. lacky, has his protected job here in the states, probably due in part to shuffling KBR or equivalent paperwork, he's good as gold; set up for his easy-life-in-his-digs retirement. Sorry ass-clown, your consistently close-minded forum decorum doesn't make for objective discourse .... again.
I usually end up deleting my responses to your narrow-minded, war-mongering viewpoints and rationalizations, but in this case, I'll let it ride.
Sherwood
