Halliburton hired by the Navy to start doing repairs on Naval facilities in NOLA

Now, isn't it me, but didn't these guys totally embezzle millions, perhaps BILLIONS of dollars earmarked for rebuilding infrastructure in Iraq, and we're giving them and their 'wholly owned subsidiary KBR' even MORE federal money, on what seems like a pony show bidding process or another a no-bid contract, to go out and rebuild infrastructure again?

Something doesn't seem smart.

Also: More good news about the gentleman who is currently in charge of FEMA operations down there.
