1. I'm so proud of KBR I could puke!
Yikes, my dad's brother used to be the president and chairman of that fookin' outfit!

:hide:

I had a summer job at their Houston headquarters once when I was in high school!

:hide:

I overcharged 'em for shoddy work!

:D

3. (REC) Come on guys, this is great news!
Edited on Mon Mar-10-08 11:55 AM by ihavenobias
McCain and other conservatives say that because the US has the second highest corporate tax rate in the world, our economy is in trouble. KBR not paying taxes is the first critical step toward stimulating our economy!

Just think of all the jobs KBR has created for good Americans because of these lower taxes!

Then again I suppose they could be using that money to defend themselves against sexual harassment lawsuits that (sadly) barely crack the mainstream media news cycle: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VCTlWAlvLzk&eurl

6. Your comment is deep and hits the mark! Obama should be using this in his speeches!
Good one!

4. Bush waas asked about this
He said that if military contractors in Iraq like KBR had to pay taxes, had to keep proper books by established accounting methods and couldn't bribe the puppet government in Baghdad and all the other things the "Democrat Congress" wants them to do, they would refuse to help protect America in Iraq.
