Dick Cheney - A Winner Indeed (Page 2)

Do you mean name another company that is positioned to grow proportionately with its connection to the current administration based on the fact that it has absolutely no risk?  One that can dedicate almost unlimited resources to growth because has no fear of not winning the contracts that it bids on or getting paid what it wants to get paid and only returns tens of millions of dollars in overcharges when it gets caught?

Hmmm, gee, that's a toughie.

There's also an interesting philosophy at work here.  Criticizing Halliburton for some of the things that have happened is not necessarily decided by party affiliation.  However, doesn't it seem like the defenders of Halliburton assume that any criticism must be defended as both an attack on the company and the republican party?  Does that further indicate the strength of the perceived relationship between the two?  I believe that's called irony, no?

Who defends Halliburton in an argument like this unless they are simultaneously defending the republican party?  Why?  Even if a person is a stockholder what difference will this argument make to their stock price?
