Outsourcing the (Iraq) war: which is precisely what Bush jnr, Rumsfeld, Cheney and the Neo-Con cabal did - to the point where there were more PMC's in Iraq than US troops. Accountability went out the window, as did spending on, ahem, *cough* "contracts", which all seemed to end up awarded to Halliburton or Blackwater...
btw Kirk, here's a reply to your post in the 'constitutional monarch' debate. You make a more than lucid point mate!
Exactly like Halliburton, Limes. Or Blackwater. Milo Minderbinder lives! By the way, I mentioned Jon Voight because he's a big supporter of the war in Iraq. Mike Nichols sure knew now to cast 'em.
Thanks for getting back to me on that, bren. I can't say I'd ever want a Royal Family for the US, but it doesn't seem to get in the way of yours being a relatively egalitarian country. More so than ours of late.
In order to keep the hucksters, humbugs, scoundrels, psychos, morons, and last but not least, artificial intelligentsia at bay, I have decided to turn on comment moderation. On the plus side, I've gotten rid of the word verification.
Hmmmm, like Haliburton?
