To add--Haliburtion if this is what you're referrring too actually loses money in war zones as they have done in Iraq--and they are NOT into drilling oil. They supply and service the equipment for others to drill--and are more of a large multi construction business--that is typically sent into developing countries to help out. In fact, Bill Clinton used them on a couple of occasions.
Dude you got to stop listening to Limbaugh, Haliburton lost money from the war?? Go look at their stocks, before the war it was a little over $6 a share and once the war started it steadily climbed to over $50 a share.

Oh, and Dick Cheneys shares that were worth around $244,000 are now worth over $8 million. Haliburton lost money...classic!

Yep, he wanted to stop using taxpayer money and start having private for profit companies raid medical sites, companies owned by prison contractors.
While in Congress, Tancredo voted in 2006 to disallow states from making their own medical marijuana laws. (Jul 2006)

You really can't move forward by continually looking out your rear view mirror. While NONE of us like the Iraq war--and everyone is wondering what happened to that WMD--you also have to remember very clearly that 99% of democrats in congress and the senate--including John Kerry who was on the senate intelligence committee at that time--voted for the invasion--and then afterward voted against it--when he decided to run for President. Futhermore, stock prices have nothing to do with actual profit--we more than witnessed that with the tech sector crash. Halliburton is much more profitable during times of peace working with infracstructure in no war zones.
Then everyone started talking about the conspiracy of Halliburton--and no bid contracts--when it is a well known fact that Bill Clinton used Halliburton on no bid contracts on at least 2 occasions.
The entire point is--our intelligence was horrible. Along with Britain--France--M1-6--and Bill Clinton--Al Gore and John Kerry who are on video record for stating that Sadam Husien was massing up on WMD. And who inherited this intelligence from the previous administration? None other than G.W. Bush.
