Not Your Sweetie

Chris Floyd - Global Eye:

Last week, while the notorious coward George W. Bush -- who walked away from his National
Guard duty during the Vietnam War, a criminal act known as "desertion" when committed by
lesser mortals -- was basking in the man-musk of a shipload of sailors, reciting his usual lies
about al-Qaida's "alliance" with Saddam Hussein, and weasel-wording his "victory" declaration to
avoid taking full legal responsibility for the consequences of the war of aggression he had
unleashed, Bechtel was quietly pocketing a secret, closed-bid, open-ended Iraq contract that
could give them almost $700 million in taxpayer money before the 2004 election -- with the
alluring prospect of untold billions to follow, Mother Jones reports.
