Government graft; political bribery; no-bid contracts; cost over runs - all because of Halliburton's ties to Dick Cheney.

Clinton laid the roadwork for that during his administration when he stated that no bid contracts were good and with his support of haliburton.
Thanks for reminding me about how no bid contracts and how Haliburton are both evil when there is a Republican in office, but the greatest thing since sliced bread when it's a Democrat.
