Thanks, Corbin!
And so have our liberal fellow bloggers, it seems. (Somehow I can't quite think of our man Scoop as a liberal.)

Shaw and tell? (sorry!)

Justsouno, I understand Shaw's name is now being omitted from the usual media diatribes.

Scoop, interesting hypothesis, but illogical. Why would the Bush administration steer big contracts to a key opponent? The geographical conenction does work, though, as it does for Hosuton-based Halliburton. KBR predecessor Borwn & Root was a major, major construction contractor all over the Gulf coast when they too were based in Houston.

Three ways to look at this

1-yes he is the Democratic chairman

2-But he is also a client of Bush's lobbyist buddy

3-And the company is located in Baton Rouge, makes sense to me to pump some business that way

People will miss that Democratic tidbit by choice I believe. Keep it up.
