Pentagon warned Halliburton-KBR on "dirty" food service
see the tax savings in contracting out the military to "private industry"

Suckers!

The Pentagon repeatedly
warned contractor
Halliburton-KBR that the
food it served to US troops
in Iraq was "dirty," as were
as the kitchens it was
served in, NBC News
reported Friday.

Halliburton-Kellogg Brown
and Root's promises to improve "have not been followed
through," according to a Pentagon report that warned
"serious repercussions may result" if the contractor did not
clean up, the television network reported.

The Pentagon reported finding "blood all over the floor,"
"dirty pans," "dirty grills," "dirty salad bars" and "rotting
meats ... and vegetables" in four of the military messes the
company operates in Iraq, NBC said, citing Pentagon
documents.

1. No wonder that turkey Bush held was plastic
The real one was full of salmonella. Could you imagine Bush serving the troops and then they all get food poisoning?
