finally, some money to be made

this from the nydailynews:

The Navy announced yesterday that Vice President Cheney's former company, Halliburton, which has handled much of the repair work as well as support services for the U.S. military in Iraq, was hired to restore power and rebuild three naval facilities in Mississippi that were wrecked by Katrina.

Thank goodness!!! I was beginning to think this might have been a disaster! Luckily there's been an opportunity to redirect some of that money being spent on NOLA to Halliburton. I was begining to think this was going to be a total loss.
