Why is it everything that is bad has a HALLIBURTON aroma (oil spill)
Edited on Tue May-04-10 09:14 PM by Rosa Luxemburg
I learned that Halliburton is involved in the oil spill in the Gulf.

A 2007 study by the U.S. Minerals Management Service found that cementing was the single most important factor in 18 of 39 well blowouts in the Gulf of Mexico over a 14-year period -- more than equipment malfunction and who was reponsible for cementing?

7. it's bigger than that. Not only was Halliburton responsible for the cementing
shortly before the explosion, they were also responsible for the cementing of an Australian rig that also exploded...AND Halliburton purchased the world's foremost rig firefighting company just prior to doing the cement work!
