The company declined an interview but suggests in an e-mail to NBC News that critics are politically motivated: “When Halliburton succeeds, Iraq progresses. Sadly, a few people don’t want either of those results.”
Man, they use the same plays out of the playbook, but adapt! So cool! Such arrogant assholes! So Cheney-like in their masterful inactivity! Let me translate a bit for you:
Critic=traitor
whistleblowers=terrorists
progress=we’re not the fall guys for Iraq’s problems anymore
I suppose next they’re going to steal General Motors’ line about what’s good for Halliburton is good for the nation.
How many days until the election?
