We know that there is doping in any sort of athletics that
involve significant sums of money.What else could you pedantically inform us of? That people
cheat on their taxes? Speed on the freeway? Drive drunk?
That most panhandlers are substance abusers? That
Halliburton gets awarded no-bid contracts because their
former CEO is the vice-president of the federal government?You post this stuff like it's a revelation or
something. Get over yourself. We know already. take
care and have a nice day,K. Gringioni

So, tell us all where the data in the Le Journal du
Dimanche article has been published before. Please post a
list of the 126 authorised items that US Postal brought to
the 2000 Tour.Thanks and have a great day!

Just a note of disapproval re: Halliburton. Apparently it
was OK for them to have been awarded the very same sort of
contract by the Clinton Administration in Bosnia. So perhaps
you could explain to us what the VP had to do with it in
that case? -

Dumbass -
Awards of no-bid contracts when there are multiple
vendors willing and capable of fulfilling them should be
forbidden in government. Cronyism and corruption are a
cancer on any society.If this society strives to be as 'free' as it claims, we
should include free markets when it comes to awarding
taxpayer dollars to private companies. That means open
bidding on goods and services which are not proprietary. And
it doesn't matter what administration it is, Clinton or
Bush, Democrat or Republican. -

Just a note of disapproval re: Halliburton. Apparently it
was OK for them to have been awarded the very same sort of
contract by the Clinton Administration in Bosnia. So
perhaps you could explain to us what the VP had to do with
it in that case?Halliburton subsidiary KB&R won a large contract to
supply the military in Bosnia (known as Logistics Civil
Augmentation Program, or LOGCAP) in a competitive bidding
situation. There were problems with overbilling and the
GAO was critical of the Army for not doing enough to
track the costs of those contracts. That criticism was
one of the reasons why KB&R lost a second big contract to
Dyncorp in '97.The problem with what's happened this time around is that
Halliburton got huge (in the multi- billions) contracts
to do much more than supply the military, including
repair/maintenance of oil field equipment, putting out
fires and repair of other infrastructure items. These
were (or nearly) all no-bid contracts. The imbalance
toward Halliburton was bad enough that many other
companies that have been involved in that kind of work
began to complain - including Bechtel. Cheney still gets
paid by Halliburton (though it is deferred). He does not
seem to have severed himself from his former company as
much as it would seem prudent to be if one wanted to
avoid the appearance of impropriety.From an article in Time (sorry for not linking, it's
subscription only):"Cheney's relationship with Halliburton has been
nothing but trouble since he left the company in 2000.
Both he and the company say they have no ongoing
connections. But TIME has obtained an internal Pentagon
e-mail sent by an Army Corps of Engineers
official‹whose name was blacked out by the
Pentagon‹that raises questions about Cheney's arm's-
length policy toward his old employer. Dated March 5,
2003, the e-mail says "action" on a multibillion-dollar
Halliburton contract was "coordinated" with Cheney's
office. The e-mail says Douglas Feith, a high-ranking
Pentagon hawk, got the "authority to execute RIO," or
Restore Iraqi Oil, from his boss, who is Deputy Defense
Secretary Paul Wolfowitz. RIO is one of several large
contracts the U.S. awarded to Halliburton last year."The e-mail says Feith approved arrangements for the
contract "contingent on informing WH [White House]
tomorrow. We anticipate no issues since action has been
coordinated w VP's [Vice President's] office." Three days
later, the Army Corps of Engineers gave Halliburton the
contract, without seeking other bids."--
