Still waiting for an explanation of the $13billion KBR 'LOGCAP' contract. While you are spinning that, consider this tidbit from today's NYDaily News:
A revamped deal to allow Dubai Ports World to take over six major U.S. ports - including Manhattan's cruise ship terminal and Newark's container depot - would have to be something along the lines of the Marine One contract.
...
"A lot of people are talking about this, a subsidiary or a deal like that," a congressional source confirmed.
One snag to such a deal may be that sources say the U.S. company best equipped to partner with DP World is Halliburton, once headed by Vice President Cheney.
[sarcasm]Now that's a shocker!![/sarcasm]
