Cigars all around — it's a Halliburton! Dick Cheney's former company and ongoing sugar daddy finally announced the birth of a healthy $500 million no-bid Iraq firefighting contract $3.8 billion in corporate welfare , as well as its extensive lobbying efforts, manic corruption, alleged connections to Russian organized crime, and other cronyish behavior with this very readable August 2000 report from Center for Public Integrity . "If Halliburton has benefited from government generosity, it also has reciprocated with substantial political contributions, largely to Republicans." You don't say!
There's also a bunch of worthwhile Halliburton links (Guantanamo Bay! Nigerian dirty bomb americium!) in this post and here too .
