Halliburton hired for Katrina storm cleanup., page 1

Originally posted by Seekerof

The Navy has hired Houston-based Halliburton Co. to restore electric power, repair roofs and remove debris at three naval facilities in Mississippi damaged by Hurricane Katrina.

Halliburton subsidiary KBR will also perform damage assessments at other naval installations in New Orleans as soon as it is safe to do so.

KBR was assigned the work under a "construction capabilities" contract awarded in 2004 after a competitive bidding process. The company is not involved in the Army Corps of Engineers' effort to repair New Orleans' levees.

Oppps, this is more of that concrete proof that Cheney and Bush, was behind Hurricane Katrina so that they could become even richer. First they profited off of Iraq, and now they are going to profit off the worst natural castastrophe to hit the US.

Interesting, no?

And the donations keep rolling in...are you kidding me? We didn't donate money to Iraq to help rebuild their infrastructure, yet the government asks Americans - already saturated with high income taxes, high gas taxes, et al - to donate their monies to help those in New Orleans. You gotta be joking.

Via the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act (42 U.S.C. 5121-5206), once a Governor requests emergency relief from the President of the United States, this Act kicks in...this Act provides all the monies (from past income taxes, gas taxes, et al) to help rebuild a disaster zone in America.

Anyone who sends one penny to the American Red Cross, Salvation Army, et cetera, should be dropped into the alligator infested streets of New Orleans from a helicopter. Americans should demand that only the federal government pay for all monies to the relief of New Orleaners. If it works for Iraq, it sure darn well should work for us Americans.

And before my "new" thread closes in this section, I would like to add the following:

How long did Bush wait?
