Is Halliburton a good issue for Dems?

[spooky3]

Are Americans upset that Halliburton is using THEIR tax money to run ads telling them they should be HAPPY about it?

1. Only if Kerry announces that he will give the contract to a different co

2. Yes, and so is Harken

bush and his insider trading in the 90's is just as potent and true as his desertion from his military unit. We got all the ammo, we just have to ensure we use it.

3. i can't remember if kerry ever mentioned halliburton

has he? i always thought he was steering away from it because of the forbes contract to rebuild vietnamese ports issue.

4. Just a simple plain: YES.

Halliburton is indicative of the Republican party engraciating the rich and powerful, especially the inheritors of wealth, with a meaningful life identity that they deserve being laden with that same wealth and power, and thus they work to enhance their self-worth by taking more money and power from those who have little and will soon have less and less. It is vain and in vain. They will never have enought because the truth is that they are scared of losing their wealth and privelege and so they strive to protect it by claiming to themselves that they deserve it. The more they claim it to themselves the more it becomes their identity from where they will be cruel before dropping it.

It's noblese oblige, without the oblige; and power corrupting, even more power even more corrupting (I leave absolutes alone).

For their own good they must be stopped.

5. So far Kerry hasn't said spit about any of the contracts in Iraq.

Guess he approves of them.

He certainly hasn't called for the privatization of IRAQI assets to stop or be reversed.

6. They should MAKE it a good issue

but considering how things are going I wouldn't hold my breath.
