Wow, lots of REMFs complaining about things they don't understand. I would love to see what would happen if any one of these commentators was placed in a war zone [like Baghdad] and had to protect themselves or others.

[madashelldude]

Spoken like a true ignoramus. The real question is would we even have a war zone like that if it wasn't to corrupt republican companies like the 630 in Baghdad? Also the Green Zone looks familiar to anyone who knows the history of the British East India Company factories in India and China: a corporation that offshored labor and caused the founding of the USA by very similar no bid resource grabbing war contracts and corporate welfare such as the 1773 tax cuts.

[malagent]

So I'm an "ignoramus" and all 630 companies working in Iraq are corrupt because they're "republican" - Sure OK.

My comment was directed to those criticizing shoot/no shoot decisions when they know nothing about the circumstances and stress involved in such scenarios. Hence the term REMF

[madashelldude]

kinda like in the vietnam "free fire zone" arguments: all witnesses are dead and others have no authority to judge ;)

Again the real issue is not how good of a job they do but whether or not the founders ever intended to outsource intelligence and military capabilities to the extent the republicans have done it since 2001. The very existence of BW is a subversion of the Constitution in that war becomes a private enterprise like in colonial Britain.

Erik Prince was trained in Christian fundamentalist schools and funds Christian fundamentalist lobbying groups. He interned for Bush sr. and Dana Rohrbacher. His billionaire right wingnut father left him the money to form this private mercenary army accountable to no one but paid for with US tax dollars. Blackwater was there after Katrina hunting for "looters." Blackwater is the modern SS for 21st century fascism.

[willingtorisk]

Right wing financial fascism draped in hypocryt christianity. WHy did waxman let him off, he's the CEO of this company and he can't comment on the pilots experience, he knows exactly their level of experience, bs answer for bs lying right wing scumfuck money bags money fucker. Fuck you prince, and your nazi's.

If your a christian, why not take on the moneychangers who killed christ, WALL STREET ASSHOLE. Line your pockets dipshit.

[computerhacksaw]

speaking of books, I am reading one called 'Blackwater' by Jeremy Scahill

guess what it's about....

I suggest you pick it up, and then maybe you will start to see why Erik Prince's religious views are a point well worth mentioning....

I'll leave it at that

get the book.

[oyoung07]

Why does someone's religion have to be included in their criticisms? I do believe that the Constitution contains a certain amendment that states all of us, as Americans, have the right to freedom of religion. If you are such a liberal, which I am assuming you are since you have such an intolerance towards Christianity, why do you bash this freedom? This man's religion has nothing to do with his ability to run his company. So, I would suggest to you ignorant people to maybe go read a book.

[Bladed0edge0razor]

yh ...he looks like that guy from the film...i think it was called The Wind in the Willows i think...those weasels..that wanted to turn toad hall into a dog food factory...i watched this film when i was 8

[barnsoldat91]

Just look at Waxman's face. Fucking disgusting.

[GoogleTRUTHRISINGnow]

Waxman is doing his best

[usmcoth]

The only thing that public succeeded in doing was that Blackwater has now moved their operations to another country and the government money trial will continue. The government will not stop.

[evw1012]

Is it just me, or does that Waxman guy look EXACTLY like a weasel?

[josh1728]

Prince or Trump...worst hair?
