In desperation KBR attorneys attempted to “encourage” Army to reconsider
Page« 1 2 3 ~View All~»
I'm sure there's a special place in Hell for KBR attorneys!
It never ceases to amaze me the brazen balziness of KBR and their attorneys. You have to have huge cajones and no soul to publicly humiliate rape victims, and victims of incompetence and poor management. Maybe the Army could borrow some to get their House in order and get their Generals under control.
I’m not a lawyer, but I do believe in justice. Not KBR’s who’s the bigger bully, justice. Not who’s got the biggest law firm, justice. Not who’s got the bigger bucket of money, justice. Real justice. Doing the right thing justice. The Army’s own Generals are getting ready to testify against the Army on behalf of the Army’s own corrupt contractor. Who’s the client here?
Many of you might remember LGEN Sanchez was the Commander in Iraq during the highly publicized Abu Ghraib prisoner abuse scandal. He retired shortly after that under intense scrutiny.
The independent panel that investigated the Abu Ghraib scandal in 2004, headed by former Defense Secretary James R. Schlesinger, found that General Sanchez had been derelict in overseeing detention in Iraq. (click HERE for original article)
One has to wonder if General Sanchez holds any animosity towards the Defense Department and that is why he is more than willing to testify….Oh yea, there is also that $650/hour wage! As of the writing of this post General Sanchez will be allowed to be deposed and General Crear, who was supposed to be overseeing KBR at Qarmat Ali, along with former Army Secretary Pete Geren, and retired Col. Sumner will apparently be jumping in to assist in KBR’s defense. The line is getting very blurry regarding who the defendants really are, KBR or the Army.
I will close with, there’s not much I despise more than corporate attorney’s who protect those I feel are corrupt and morally bankrupt. Maybe it’s time for an all out information “blogswarm” on the potential PR tactics that McKenna Long & Aldridge may consider stooping to on behalf of their client KBR.

Having spent many hours in the court room with corporate attorneys I know for a fact there are no limits to the depths they will sink for their clients. It’s all about the money. If it’s something a partner doesn’t want to do personally for whatever reason, the task will be assigned to a junior associate. Regardless of who does it, it gets done. Ethically or morally questionable? It doesn’t matter. It’s all about billable hours and keeping the high paying clients happy. I don’t know how they sleep at night but I would suspect they sleep just fine. That in itself is disturbing.

Can I assume then there will be no warm greetings or tin of cookies come Christmas time?

I think that’s safe to assume!

Wow…Interesting, When I clicked on the link to read the document, I expected it to be made from cut and pasted words from news papers and magazines like most ransom demands are made.
The fact that David Kasanow from this law firm had Huevos enough to sign that abomination is beyond reprehensible. Or is Mr. Kasanow the poor guy that drew the short straw and the rest of the firm made him do it.
Either way, I sure hope someone in our Congress is looking at this. If our congress does nothing and lets KBR hold this country hostage like this, then they are no better than criminals themselves and they all deserve to be impeached and to serve jail time. Or better yet, they can go drive convoy trucks in Afghanistan and Iraq for punishment (without pay).
Remember people, it is still WE THE PEOPLE!! and election time is right around the corner, let’s not perpetuate this kind of behavior.
The people who risk their lives to help our troops are heroes just like the troops themselves. If I ever got a chance to meet these attorneys, the only thing they would get from me is a spinning back kick to the groin and a face full of pepper spray…That’s all they deserve, besides jail time or a hospital stay.
Thank You Ms. Sparky for doing what nobody else has the courage to do.

You could put together a naughty and nice list of those up for re-election, similar to David Lettermans top ten.
