US to halt Halliburton deal...

What?!?! But...but Halliburton does such a good job! I don't believe it!

From MSNBC.com:

"Under the deal, Halliburton had exclusive rights to provide the military with a wide range of work that included keeping soldiers around the world fed, sheltered and in communication with friends and family back home. Government audits turned up more than $1 billion in questionable costs. Whistle-blowers told how the company charged $45 per case of soda, double-billed on meals and allowed troops to bathe in contaminated water."

Guess it's time for Cheney to go on another hunting trip. And this time he's inviting everyone from the Pentagon's budget committee.
