Dickhead of the Week - The Silent Dickhead

For the past twenty years, Bunnatine H. Greenhouse has been working in military procurement for the Army, and she did her job so well that for the past several years, she's been chief overseer of contracts for the Army Corps of Engineers.

Since 2003, with little fanfare, Greenhouse has been officially critical of the no-bid contracts being awarded to Halliburton and its subsidiaries. Since the contracts have been granted without following official procedure, she has raised strong objections.

So Greenhouse got demoted. The Army calls it poor work performance. Greenhouse's lawyer calls it retaliation.

Retaliation? Really? And could it be coming from inside the Bush administration? Dun-dun-DUNNNNN!

But who? Former head of Halliburton Dick(head) Cheney? Top Neo-conning Pentagoner Donny-boy Rumsfeld? Karl "I'll Kill Your Mother if You Touch My Sandwich" Rove? Or hell, maybe there was no directive from above and Lt. Gen. Carl A. Strock, commander of the corps, simply did the thing he knows the higher ups would want.

I bet she gets audited, too. What a colossal bunch of Dickheads.
