Why am I not surprised that I, someone I consider to be informed, didn't know about Clinton's no-bid deals with Halliburton? Couldn't be because of liberal media cover-up and determination to pin it all on Bush could it?

There just are not a lot of American companies like Halliburton.

Since Bush won the White House, the S&P's total return has been -7.4%. Halliburton? -11.7%.

Here is an email I got from a friend who actually had dealings with Enron. I save it for occasions like this.

Subject: FYI The Truth About Enron!
a.. Enron's chairman did meet with the president and the vice president in the Oval Office.
b.. Enron gave $420,000 to the president's party over three years.
c.. It donated $100,000 to the president's inauguration festivities.
d.. The Enron chairman stayed at the White House 11 times.
e.. The corporation had access to the administration at its highest levels and even enlisted the Commerce and State Departments to grease deals for it.
f.. The taxpayer-supported Export-Import Bank subsidized Enron for more than $600 million in just one transaction. Scandalous!!
g.. BUT...the president under whom all this happened WASN'T George W. Bush.
h.. SURPRISE ......... It was Bill Clinton!
Amazingly, you don't see this in the Liberal Press.

Halliburton is the only company with the experience and wherewithall to do the job. Unless you want to give it back to TotalFinaElf, which seems to be the Democrats' preference.

I too did not know that, but am not surprised. I wonder how many Dems know about Clinton-Gore-Halliburton? Too bad the losers never said "Wait, that's the same company we used in Kosovo, and through the 90's." Nope, couldn't do something like that to improve the country's opinion of Bush. Losers.

So, did Clinton and Gore involve the United States in the Balkans to benefit Halliburton? That charge makes as much sense as the one that Democrats are hurling at Bush now. Would that they directed more of their outrage at the people in Iraq who want to sabotage the country's oil infrastructure, rather than at the U.S. corporation charged with helping repair it.

The Democrats care nothing about the truth of their charges. In fact, the more outrageous the better. Hillary's yelping about the air at ground zero after the attack is another example, They know that their media friends will trumpet their charges but not report the rebuttals. The lie then becomes the truth.
