KBR

How else would you explain this?

Defense contractor KBR may have exposed as many as 100,000 people, including US troops, to cancer-causing toxins by burning waste in open-air pits in Iraq, says a series of class-action lawsuits filed against the company.

The plaintiffs filing the lawsuits say they have suffered from health problems ranging in seriousness from shortness of breath to cancer. Russell Keith, a paramedic from Huntsville, Alabama, told the Senate Democratic Policy Committee his doctors believe his development of Parkinson’s disease was triggered by 15 months of daily exposure to the burn pits at Joint Base Balad in Iraq. Another plaintiff claims to have developed kidney disease as a result of exposure.

So, when will the teabaggers cry out to their corporate masters about passing legislation revoking KBR’s federal funding?

Bunch of corporate whores

Here’s a list of things you can investigate after you’re done crucifying ACORN for failing to recognize a fake pimp:
