Halliburton has a long history of fraud, over-charging the tax-payers, gouging the troops in Iraq, bribing politicians, illegally doing business with our enemies and evading taxes. They are the single biggest war profiteer and have a huge interest in keeping the Iraq War going and going and going. They are also managing the Iraqi oil fields and tens of billions is missing in Iraq.

How dare you call HAL a "great company". They are corrupt.

Clinton did use Halliburton in Kosovo, but not until Cheney became VP did they totally abuse the system, wildly over-charge tax-payers and get fat no-bid contracts which are basically blank checks, the more they spend, the more they make and the more they rip off from taxpayers.

hal is a great company that prospered wildly under Clinton, and not too bad under bush.

I think you read charts differently than I do...

Or maybe it's a terminology issue. Is "not too bad" better than "prospered wildly"?
