The Fact is that Halliburton has been an outsourced Logistics supplier since the Civil War and was, at that time, the largest and most capable of delivering supplies to our troops.
What do you want to make of that fact?
Who would you have given that contract to?
Don’t answer, because you won’t have a legitimate answer.
There was no one else...
The problem is that Cheney retained Haliburton stock options while giving them no bid contracts, and lied about it. See #32.
