Caught in the cookie jar?

Via Voice of a Veteran.

The top civilian contracting specialist for the Army Corps of Engineers is blowing the whistle on Halliburton and the Army:

The top civilian contracting official for the Army Corps of Engineers, charging that the Army granted the Halliburton Company large contracts for work in Iraq and the Balkans without following rules designed to ensure competition and fair prices to the government, has called for a high-level investigation of what she described as threats to the "integrity of the federal contracting program."

And for her trouble, the contracting specialist has recieved significant static, including threats to her job.

The injustice and betrayal of so many Americans (and Iraqis) with this war continue to mount.
