Is it bad enough the taxpayers pay blackwater for Bush one time?

Question

as if that were not bad eough, isn't the law suits by families going to be another burden on the taxpayer?

Blackwater's rambo/bush style kiiling Americans and then the families sue Blackwater? sn't this really more tax payer burden? Oh sure it comes out of blackwater's pockets. BUT who paid blackwater? you and I.

now how double whamie is that? thanks to Bush we pay for blackwater twice. oh and the loss of life is invaluable.

Thanks bush. Thanks Blackwater. Just screw America more and moe each day.

oh, and don't forget how smootha coverup goes if you write the reports yourself. "Blackwater contractor wrote government report on incident"

john A, NO. I keep hearing republicans say our troops are not good enough. Tha is why blackwater is "NEEDED". the republicans just disgust me. To say blackwate is nesescarry because the military is not good enough to do the job.

What a waste of American tax dollars for Blackwater. And to top it off defending Blackwater/and Bush at the expense of our brave and honorable troops.

Answer 1

More and more evidence that Bush & Cheney need to be impeached:

Erik D. Prince
Executive summary: Blackwater USA mercenary firm
Born: 1970
Birthplace: Holland, MI
Gender: Male
Religion: Born-Again Christian
Race or Ethnicity: White
Sexual orientation: Straight
Occupation: Business, Military
Party Affiliation: Republican
Nationality: United States
Military service: Navy SEAL Team Officer (1993-96, Bosnia, Haiti)
Erik Prince is a multi-millionaire right-wing fundamentalist Christian from a powerful Michigan Republican family. His wealth came from his father, Edgar Prince, who headed Prince Automotive, an auto parts and machinery manufacturer.

A major Republican campaign contributor, he interned in the White House of President George H.W. Bush and campaigned for Pat Buchanan in 1992, finding time to intern for conservative congressman Dana Rohrabacher as well. Prince founded the mercenary firm Blackwater USA in 1997 with Gary Jackson, another former Navy SEAL.

Prince's sister Betsy DeVos is a powerful conservative in her own right. Married to the son of Richard DeVos (Republican bankroller and co-founder of Amway), she served as chair of Michigan Republican Party in the 1990s.

Answer 2

the problem with your idea is that the State Dept hired Blackwater with the approval of Congress and the GAO. Same as they did several security firms in Vietnam. Too bad some of the stuff that went down then didn't come to light.

Answer 3

Blackwater is a privately owned company.

Answer 4

Why does the goverment outsource military jobs? We pay 5 times more for the same job. Does republicans have little faith in our arm forces?

Answer 5

let us get out and do something about all the things we don't like. Not doing any good just talking about it.
