Bush to "roll out" rebuilding efforts "through private companies" tonight
He'll appoint a czar and hand out no-bid contracts to his supporters.


I won't be surprised if they "unveiled a MODEL for the city" tonight.

Pure theatre.

1. Don't forget ...
People will be ALLOWED to work for these firms for less than the prevailing wage ... It's a win all the way around George :sarcasm:

4. If Bush pulls that shit tonight, he'll need a lot longer bathroom break
because it will not flush with most people to learn he is gayly handing out their tax dollars to his corporate cronies again.

6. Corporate Cronies has to be Said Louder
Do those people who don' want our tax money helping others care about privatization? I don't think so. But perhaps if we shout CRONY, they will listen. Even they are becoming aware that the cronies can't do the job. And where did those dollars go in Iraq, Halliburton?

8. Just read in new Time Mag that new-bid NO contracts are
just flowing out the door. They said they are shoveling the money as fast as they can. The vultures can't wait to circle the dead.
