U.S. Oil companies fail to secure a single contract in Iraq

[thetazeta610]

Well then, case closed.

This.

Yeah there are HUGEEEEEEE profits made off going to war like Nukka above. From construction to weapons to services...they made billions off the Iraq war.

The Bush Administration had bad intelligence and it's apparent that some in the administration knew that.

 

[kittymom]

This is good news. Now the war wasn't even for something that might benefit us. It's exclusively a war for no-bid contracts after all.

 

[ACF]

your first post summed everything up pretty well massiv

 

[Muzik]

frack dick cheney

 

[Donalyn]

Yeah, except they weren't no bid. So this war was literally for nothing.

 

[sahsjing]

Who else bid on the electro-cuting showers?

 

[Guy in©ogn!to]

dude I brought dzan out


thread must be legit like a tit.


edit: just tried to +1 myself for it and realized that if you do that, you see your total rep count. changed my life.

So you think it would be efficient for the US gov. to bid out every single item that is used during a war? Should they have gotten competitive biRAB for the shower heaRAB, as well as the faucets, the curtains, the little rings that hold the curtains to the rod, the rod, the towels, the drain, etc, etc? Perhaps if they bid out the shampoo bottles as well as the caps and the shampoo contained within they could save a few pennies, right? Get real. Halliburton was on retainer (a position they gained through a competitive process) to be able to rapidly respond to the neeRAB of the Army.

...and a great job they did. But I did laugh when you said it was a competitive process. Like pro-wrestling is competitive.

When Alexander Hamilton became secretary of the treasury he sold all his business interests and closed his law firm because he felt a government official should be above even potential for impropriety. I guess our standarRAB have fallen.

 

[cascade_boss_dogg]

Hussain is Bin Laden, WMD's, they hate us for our freedom, Operation Iraqi Freedom, the war will pay for it's self in oil, BS BS BS ect ect ect....

The only real reason for the war? Fill Halliburton's pockets... we've been had.

 

[♫Bailey☮]

Oil? Oil? Watchu talkin bout oil for bitch you cookin?

 

[｡Tessa ｡]

I could be wrong, but I wasn't aware that Cheney was engaged in any business activities outside of his duties as VP (or any other political position held).

 

[JennO]

we're still in the being had process



shut up with that shit, you know good and well he was getting kickbacks and a bunch of other bull shit for the stunts they pulled in office. Do you really think mainstream media is going to tell the American people that? No, they're working for the same people that manipulated the war. Washington post has been notorious for pushing news stories with direction from the CIA. Propaganda much? I'd say so. So frack Cheney and his elitist circle of frienRAB, they did nothing truly productive to further America in my opinion.

 

[live_laugh_love_4ev]

lol

 

[Yahole]

Can't tell if peluso and utah are trolling or if they have head buried in the sand..

 

[invader_cuban]

Everyone knows Cheney wasn't getting kickbacks - he's just a pawn for the illuminati.

 

[Pristine]

nukka you're bat-poop crazy

 

[Tootsie05]

I get kickbacks from halliburton for influencing public opinon in their favor.

I am also a secret agent.
