vice pres. dick helps lift $1.42 billion from U.S. taxpayers
Now that Michael has been crucified and labeled by the media as a villain preying on children who will be next to be used to media cover for the real villains….like the vice president dick….the head of Halliburton for over 4 years….
See if you see this plastered 24/7 on Fox News……Bunny Greenhouse, the Army Corps of Engineers' top contracting official-turned whistle-blower, said in testimony at a hearing by Democrats on Capitol Hill that "every aspect" of Halliburton's oil contract in Iraq had been under the control of the Office of the Secretary of Defence.
Pentagon auditors flagged over US$1 billion ($1.42 billion) of potential overcharges by the Texas-based firm.
"I can unequivocally state that the abuse related to contracts awarded to KBR (Kellogg Brown and Root) represents the most blatant and improper contract abuse I have witnessed during the course of my professional career," said Greenhouse, a procurement veteran of more than 20 years.
Halliburton's subsidiary KBR is the US military's largest service provider in Iraq and has been accused by Democrats of getting rewarding employment there because of its ties to Vice President Dick Cheney.
Pushed by lawmakers whether she thought the Defence Secretary's office was implicated in the handout and running of contracts to KBR, Greenhouse replied: "That is true."
"I observed, first hand, that essentially every aspect of the RIO (Restore Iraqi Oil) contract remained under the control of the Office of the Secretary of Defence. This troubled me and was wrong," said Greenhouse.
Loved ones include Bunny Greenhouse and all her loved ones in your prayers…petition that they all be protected with the White Light of the Holy Spirit.
