Should Kerry Hammer Bush On Halliburton In the Debates?
Edited on Mon Sep-27-04 07:44 PM by The Nation
Or, more importantly, call bush out on why he has allowed the federal government, and the american taxpayers, be cheated out of so much money.

Also ask * why he has chosen American companies to do jobs that Iraqi firms could have done, and for a much smaller pricetag.

1. Halliburton is now a damaged brand as is Cheney and Enron
We absolutely need to pin these unpleasant brand names on the "W" brand.

3. No, Edwards should hammer Cheney in the Edwards-Cheney debate
Kerry has ENOUGH to deal with, and that's NOT including Halliburton. From all accounts, Edwards is ready to tear Cheney a new one. I can hardly wait.

4. Naw, let the velvet glove from North Carolina nail the ugly fat bastard
with it during his debate!!! Edwards should refer to Dickey as VP Haliburton or the "Enron Whore to the Oval Office". There's so much for Edwards to shit on Cheney with......let the cute boy destroy the man who is everyone's "ugly, bastard boss".

5. get shrub to define "catastrophic success"
then remind shrub about the 5 or six P's.
Prior planning prevents piss poor performance.

Hey W; Pay for It.

7. Only if he gets a straight line like Lieberman got from Cheney.
That would have been a home run.

8. I would hammer on Iraq, lies and terrorism
someone else said, let Edwards go after Cheney. Edwards is not as STUPID as Joe "I invented the Liberals are evil meme" Lieberman.

God, why do we not throw people like that out. What a wuss.

9. That should be part of Kerry's explanation of his votes.
He needs to give a detailed, but not boring, explanation. At the heart of that explanation is that Bush threatened to veto the 87B unless Haliburton was left alone to plunder without oversight. Which they did.

10. Teresa tied Kerry's Iraq votes to Halliburton and shut up a freeper
I think people think Halliburton is crooked, especially people in the miltary.
