How will Halliburton and KBR survive now that they have to compete for government contracts?

Dick Cheney isn't handing them millions in No-ceiling, No-Bid contracts! "Cheney, who served as CEO from 1995 to 2000, continues to receive as much as $1 million a year in deferred compensation as Halliburton executives enjoy a seat at the table during Administration discussions over how to handle post-war oil production in Iraq." http://www.citizenworks.org/corp/halliburton.php Cookie Monster....I hope you don't actually believe that! I know your a republican, with the name calling an all, but overlooking an obvious "conflict of Interest" for 8 years can become a chore! Have a nice weekend! BTW.....Dick Cheney quite possibly could be the worst thing to happen to America in 40 years...Under his term as VP, America had 8 months of peace, he is linked to companies such as Halliburton, KBR, and United Defense! All those companies play a role in War! So what did we get under Cheney? Plenty of just such a thing........WAR! One more thing.......If Nancy Pelosi was CEO of Reebok, and then weaseled in and signed a no-bid contract to supply shoes to everyone in Washington at 300 a pop....you Cheney defenders wouldn't be shouting," well Reebok is the most comfortable shoes"....My guess is no..........and I hate Pelosi! Cookie Monster........I only found about 30............http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_oilfield_service_companies

1. they have more than enough resources to survive until another Bush is elected to straighten that out for them.
2. They wont all war were started by the Democrats and they will kiss Halibuton for want of their expertise
3. That's why they moved their headquarters to dubai. They can cash out of the US and just sell oil to other countries.
4. Umm, you do know that Obama has the head of GE on his "recovery" board and you do realize the billions and billions of dollars in stimulus "work" for GE, don't you? I wonder why the Democrats in congress didn't scream and kick about this? They must have owned stock.
5. Who will Haliburton compete with? The reason there were no bid contracts is because Haliburtin provides a unique product that no other company provides, smart @ss. People who dont know what they are taking about and yet still feel free to smear a man's name really suck! ADD: OK, then name ONE COMPANY that is a competitor. Just one. I wont hold my breath that you can do it.
6. Easy. There is no one else in the world who can do what Haliburton does on that scale. Bob's Oil Co. can run a well or even a small field. Haliburton can fix a country's oil production.
7. Halliburton is doing and and will continue to do well because they are the ONLY ones that can do that kind of work. Good try though.
8. change the name to THE DARTH SIDE
9. Halliburton has no government contracts Halliburton has no employees in Iraq or Afghanistan. Halliburton recieved billion dollar no bid contracts from democratic administrations before, you didn't complein then. KBR will continue to bid and get government logistics contracts. In fact,, every government contract KBR has now, was a bidded contract.
