Who protects the Bush-Cheney Cabal's corporate frauds inside the Department of Defense?
High-level Pentagon officials are the first line of defense in Crony Capitalism - Bushonian Style.
Despite the fact that Halliburton has defrauded the Pentagon in contracts supplying food and gasoline for US soldiers in Iraq, DoD Inspector General Joseph Schmitz has vigorously defended Halliburton by claiming that their problems "are not out of line with the size and scope of their contracts."
Schmitz then defended former Halliburton Chairman/CEO and current US Vice President Dick Cheney, who still collects hundreds of thousands of dollars a year in deferred compensation, owns stock options, and gets kickbacks from no-bid government contracts he steers to his former company.
Bush Cabalists like Joseph Schmitz run the Pentagon, ensuring that corporate-government fraud and especially procurement scams remain a lucrative revenue stream for Bush-Cheney connected companies.
Schmitz is the son of former California Rep.
