Military shuts down fast food in Afghanistan - "It's not an amusement park"

You have confused the two organizations and how they are structured. Haliburton subcontracts much of their services, ACORN did not. Not two sides of the same coin.

Your arm chair quarterbacking have no basis in fact unless of course you are going to tell us you worked for ACORN.

I did receive the excellent services of Haliburton on a regular basis while on deployment.

My point is simple...apply the same standards to both.

Both received govt funding...one, far more signficantly. Both have engaged in questionable practices...one far more serious (gang rape) and nearly $1 billion in overcharges in the last seven years.

You cant or wont do that.

So Haliburton subcontracts and ACORN has distinct sub-orgs that separate voter advocacy and housing assistance.

One supports the military and one supports disadvantaged minorities (tit suckers)

Why should they not be held to the same standard?

I have never said they should be judged by different standards as you have.

1. Where did I state they should be "judged by different standards"?

2. Where did I state that "disadvantaged minorities" were "tit suckers"?

Really. You are really reaching here and reading into my statements. Obviously reading what you want to believe about me....

Further, how many "gang rapes" happened that taint the whole organization and do you have proof that the organization was complicit? Or was this the responsibility of one person or group of people who should be held accountable for their actions?

Read back..your posts speak for themselves.

Same could be said about the ACORN employees.

Yet, you do not apply the same standards. Read your posts in the ACORN thread and see if you applied the same standard that you propose for Haliburton employees.
