hey, guess who makes money if we go to Mars?
can you say "Halliburton"?
I knew you could! More on the Mars-Halliburton story here, at the Center for American Progess, which is kind of a left-wing Heritage Foundation. High time we got some zealots of our own.
Also, some fine links to the investigation into Dick Cheney, Halliburton, and bribery in Nigeria, which goes unreported in every major US paper. Isn't it disgusting how blatantly corporations manipulate the news? Fuckin'-A, I wouldn't have heard about this except for MoveOn, whose letter wrting-campaign still hasn't gotten anything out of the New York Times, and Buzzflash.
