Also note, even with Blackwater playing very dirty, we still could not control Iraq. It has gotten worse. Some of our leaders felt Blackwater, private security contractors, etc would be the secret weapon against "insurgents". Wrong. The "insurgents" began to look more like civilians, because of the behavior of Blackwater, etc. A complete cluster fuck.

The GOP like to say how much they believe in the competitive nature of the marketplace, yet time and time again they give out no-bid or sole-source government contracts, shutting out all competition. There's a word for such behavior; it's called "hypocrisy."

So basically, after the audit, they were able to "negotiate" a reduction of over 30%. But perish the thought that Blackwater were taking advantage of the situation! No no no no no! Unthinkable!

Checking to see if Blackwater was fixing the contracts proved how bad it is to work with those creeps and saved the government $34,000,000. The next step for Waxman is to hold hearings on, "What does this mean, we are privatizing the military?"

This was a private deal by Bush. They promised to help Bush around the United States if they were given the Billion dollar contract. What did they promise? They promise to help him become DICTATOR!

Who gave these scum filth the permission to have so much control over the Iraqi civilans? No wonder Iraqis want them dead!! These pigs are dangerous not only to Iraqis but also to the image of America in Iraq!! I want these mother fucker paid agent of whomever (the oil companies-the israeli zionists) to be brought to justice and rot in hell!!

Remember, Erik Prince, CEO of Blackwater, is a fundamentalist Christian. His family believes this is Gods work. A direct quote from his uncle. Think about that for awhile. A private, Republican, neo con Christian army, paid for by American taxes. Think that may create a couple more enemies? Think they may want to blow up another US city or cities? These crazy neo cons are going to get us all killed!

Erik Prince, the owner of Blackwater, is the son of a Michigan billionaire who has long been a deep pocket funder of the Republican Party and Repubican candidates. The Prince family is getting a magnificent return on its political donations at the expense of the American taxpayer.

Whatever! You can do nothing with the Truth, but one can beat the crap out of a lie; until the Truth is reveled. Therefore, the Truth shall be told. There, now what? May God bless us all, and restore our Souls from fear to Peace.

No Dept. Of Justice Oversight=Gonzales
I can continue but you get the picture. Bush is setting America up for a Dictator. Blackwater will be it's shock troops.

Johnson, that's insane. Shock troops in an American dictatorship? These guys are all vets working a contract for their country's government overseas. Furthermore, they're doing security missions and not kicking in doors. I can't help but think the insane comments come from people who have never been in the military. Not to say anyone's opinion counts more than another's, but I'd say vets are generally more informed in this area and also less apt to protest in the same way.

Craig. Review history and you will find that when Adolf took over Germany, he had his "private security" do the diryt jobs like crystal night. Burning of th Bundw. etc. When he invaded Poland and Czech. His seurity troops became the SS.
