The ad attempts to paint Halliburton as credible, and as honest! Meanwhile........read on... http://halliburtonwatch.org/

Commercials or Propaganda; is there a difference?

They're certainly not peddling integrity here, they're peddling the perception of integrity--something which apparently is in short supply. Shareholders must be a bit nervous these days, given all the media exposure of their laundry list of war profiteering and fraudulent misdeeds. Now, if I could only remember the name of the chief architect of the war who used to be in charge of those same profiteers...oh, what is his name?

Propaganda is the stuff the DNC is spreading about Hillary Clinton trying to make the commusist worshiper to look like a moderate......the fact being she makes Ted Kennedy look like a fascist by compairison.

...just check her voting record--Hillary's a moderate Republican. I look forward to campaigning against her in '08.

The part that is most humorous is most people the slam Haliburton have no idea what they really do.

The #1 answer is "it's an oil company" .......try again partner.
