Haliburt

KBR received no-bid contracts in Kosovo too. It seems there isn''t a lot of competition in that industry.

Sorry to let facts ruin your rant.

SHRUBS legacy will be the implosion of this great nation.
Lest everyone forget, it happened on SHRUBS watch.
the ball should stop right there,
the republicans who elected this failure in chief should all share the blame equally.

Cleaning up the 8 year Bush mess will be the hardest task any new president has ever faced.

I think Obama should spend what he needs to to get this economy working again. Bush spent close to $1 trillion and counting on a war that helped no one except his buddies at Haliburton and his other welathy friends. So at least this money would be used for something good.

I don''''t understand where the money is to come from. More taxes on those who still have jobs? Any more taxes on me and I will be in need of assistance.

OBAMA is looking at the big picture, world economy. $1 Trillion will be pennies with the gains and strides we can take after this package starts taking effect. Our economy not only needs to be estimulated from inside but also from outside sources. It will take a year or two to start seeing the results of his approach.

Good idea, but first Obama must shut down the present dead financial system who''s decomposing corpse is stinching up the entire atmosphere.

If you don''t receive the Federal Reserve System into bankruptcy re-organization first then the ''stimulas package'' will not work and will be more like masturbating the economy.

Obama should be ''cool'' enough to get the ''real thing''.

"Obama Stimulus Plan Could Hit $1 Trillion"



Still less than the Bush Iraq-Halliburton Stimulus Plan which hit $3 trillion.

Guess Americans deserve some of their own tax money too.
