halliburton: the saga continues

Everyone (most especially Representative Henry Waxman) is still very annoyed over the Halliburton contracts. And now it turns out Halliburton has been collecting for their work in Iraq since March--of 2002.

Halliburton quickly fired back, saying, "To suggest that either Halliburton or any of the firms that support the Department of Defense advocate war in order to make money is an affront to all hard-working, honorable Halliburton employees, who are dedicated to serving our customers and doing what is right."

What does Halliburton expect people to say when all of the biggest contracts go to companies with direct ties to the White House? "Money had nothing to do with it."

Everyone is just calling it like they see it.
