Henry Rollins Tees Off on Halliburton-style privatization

Punk singer-songwriter Henry Rollins take on Iraq War profiteers. "The invasion & occupation of Iraq and the resulting nightmare we are enduring are for some depressing, a ongoing catastrophe with no end in sight," He said, "Yet for another group, it's the best thing that has ever happened...the corporations that provide services to the military are making more money in this time than ever before. Troop withdrawal is not in their interest".

"Why not bring the overpriced roadshow here to America and treat the citizens to a little of that privatized efficiency?" Rollins went on to say "I'm sure KBR knows what to do with my freedom a lot better than I do. Might as well privatize that, too. Keep it up Dick Cheney! All you're doing is emboldening me."

The following clip was aired in late June 2007
