Add text on edit.
Two major clients of lobbyist Joe Allbaugh (getting Michael Brown hired to head FEMA) got no bid contracts for the reconstruction of NOLA. Allbaugh has been a big player in the reconstruction of Iraq and was the head of FEMA before he left in 2003 so it's not a surprise that his buddies continue to get the big contracts.

1. I can't believe CNN reported that!
It's a segment on the no bid contracts given to * cronies. Newscaster even mentioned that Cheney still receives income from Halliburton.

3. I hope CNN continues to do their job!
I have been harassing friends and family members with emails about what is really going on and I need a vacation! If CNN would report the news I could take a little break!
