Halliburton not paying their subcontrators...
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/4480796/
<snip>Updated: 7:49 p.m. ET March 08, 2004
Halliburton has a multibillion-dollar contract to feed and house U.S. troops in Iraq. But there are problems. A food subcontractor that runs 10 percent of the dining facilities in Iraq claims it hasn’t been paid by Halliburton for months and is threatening to stop serving hot meals.

The company, Event Source, serves 100,000 meals a day in Iraq under a contract with a Halliburton subsidiary. vent Source claims Halliburton owes it $87 million, including payment for President Bush's Thanksgiving dinner with the troops.<end snip>

I wonder how the conservatives are going to spin this. Their company is screwing our troops out of well deserved hot meals. I wonder how they're going to blame Kerry or Clinton for this.

1. They'll say Halliburton can't afford to pay because Kerry
didn't vote for the 87 billion. Clinton is at fault because karma dictates that every bad event is retribution for the bj. BTW, is that thing in the pic, your cat?!

3. I found him online.
He's a cat. And I believe they just bathed him. I named him Rufus. He looks pissed off...and I usually am, too, so it works. lol
