The department may have to rent jail space from local counties or activate a $385 million Halliburton contract to build temporary detention facilities for illegal immigrants. A plan to use old cruise ships as temporary detention facilities has been taken off the table.

Since Halliburton is a company Dick Cheney is heavily involved in with huge stock options, and KBR is a Halliburton subsidiary, I see a huge profit motive for Bushco.

This may appear to be an issue that is really devisive (racism) or even a game but dirty politics, greed and profit are a bigger issue here.

I always hoped to go on a foreign cruise. Just not this way. Oh well, I get I'll get lessons in immersion Spanish, immersion Arabic, immersion Farsi, etc. What kind of OP shorts go best with waterboarding?
