"why are we using more private contractors (mercenaries) in Iraq than in the history of this country?"
Could it have to do with the fact that Clinton cut the military to the bone. A favorite thing of Democrats.

  You forget that the BUSH adminstration recommended the cuts. Also, this admin was planning on attacking Iraq even before 9/11. So why didn't it start building up the military BEFORE it attacked? Could it be that W's trying to enrich a few cronies that actually run private contractors like Haliburton, KBR, Blackwater, etc.?

    Why is it for liberals its all about enriching buddies? Is that how you operate? You do it so you know that is how they do it?

      Why do you think the Haliburtons, Blackwaters & oil co's are making all the money while the rest of us are fighting to stay solvent?
      You are truly blind if you can't see that.
