Halliburton disputes are a feature of its government contracts

[impeach the gop]

Engineering and oil
services company
Halliburton stands
accused of price gouging
in Iraq, but this is neither
its first US military contract
nor its first controversy.

Dick Cheney was
Halliburton's CEO
1995-2000 before becoming US vice president and a
leading advocate of the Iraq war. It was Halliburton
subsidiary KBR (Kellogg Brown and Root) that a Pentagon
official said Thursday charged 61 million dollars more than
it should have for gasoline supplied to Iraq.

"If anybody has overcharged the government, the money
has to be returned," President George W. Bush told
reporters.

KBR hit back strongly at what it called "inaccurate media
reports."
