The Navy has hired Houston-based Halliburton Co. to restore electric power, repair roofs and remove debris at three naval facilities in Mississippi damaged by Hurricane Katrina.
Halliburton subsidiary KBR will also perform damage assessments at other naval installations in New Orleans as soon as it is safe to do so.
KBR was assigned the work under a "construction capabilities" contract awarded in 2004 after a competitive bidding process. The company is not involved in the Army Corps of Engineers' effort to repair New Orleans' levees.

Karl Rove caused the hurricanes! Proof!
To: Conservative Firster
Oh no! Haliburtin caused Katrine to make Cheney rich. Watch for the headline in the MSM.

Well, now we know it was Bush/Cheeny fault.
Bucks are going to Haliburton. Doesn't matter that they know how to employ and perform. No, no, no.
Only that they do not contribute to unions or the DNC.

Aha! This proves the Bush/Cheney/Rove nexus created hurricane Katrina! Those zany liberals have been right all along.
To: Conservative Firster
Hey, it was Halliburton technology that steered that hurricane into this region to bump off the minorities. Might as well reward them with a contract.
Attention DUmmies: This is sarcasm. OK? Before you report this to Dan Rather or the NY Times as fact.

Gee you think they would get the contract to tear down the levees so the racist Northerner's could finally destroy that french city and avenge General Butler. Query is the House of the Rising Sun underwater?

No, the Russians did! Didn't you know that they now have the capability to creat a hurricane and direct it to anywhere in the world?! (No kidding, there's actually some nutjob out there who believes that!)

Boo-hoo...why didn't this contract go to a minority company, they'll whine. Because it would wind up like the NO evacuation, of course. Halliburton is cursed by being the best in their field, and the lefties HATE excellence because it's so undemocratic!
