[quote]This morning the Democratic Policy Committee (DPC) held a follow-up hearing regarding Halliburton subsidiary KBR’s failure to test and treat water provided to military installations throughout Iraq. This water was to be used for showering, washing clothes, and other tasks that required non-potable water. The first of three to testify at this morning’s hearing was Jeffery Griffiths M.D., Associate Professor of Public Health and Family Medicine at Tufts School of Medicine. What he had to say resonated greatly with the panel.

If I'd had to shower in that for a week, I'd never complain about any sort of dirt ever again.

But I whole-heartedly support this practice, as it makes basically free money for Halliburton! Silly public. They should learn to unquestionably support whatever Halliburton does. [/Dick Cheney]

You know we complained about being shat on by higher before... But this is just... Wow... This is very new. We are literally being shitted on by higher now.

A whole new level of troop disregard...
