What's jim's point beyond spouting randoms bits of flaming ignoance?
I expect to see claptrap like this on a street corner by a crazy person,
not on IP
At least talk about the 'issues' or dig deeper as to why the contract
was put out 'there'
And the concentration camps were truely horrors, let's stop the tirades
of 'shocking' alligations

Step by step by increasingly-predictable step.
The really chilling part is that -- right up-front, they say (below) --
these new concentration camps ("detention facilities" if you prefer the
other spin) are "to support the rapid development of new programs" ...
or "react to a national emergency".
Just exactly what "new programs" are in "rapid development"? What kind
of "national emergency" would require such concentration camps?
Oh ... I see ... it's "in the event of an immigration emergency" ... in
case of "an emergency influx of immigrants." (Gawd forbid we'd just
promptly deport them, when a third of a billion dollars can be channeled
to a corporate friend!)
But no! -- it's not that kind of "national emergency". They want to
these concentration camps to "help" in event of "a natural disaster".
Oh, of course! Our government wants multi-use concentration camps -- to
house quake or twister or flood victims, AND imprison fence-jumpers.
And who better to build'n'operate them than our Vice-Chickenhawk's very
own Halburton?!
