Canada permitted to bid for Iraqi contracts

Canada permitted to bid for Iraqi contracts [+ favourites]

Bush has publicly stated that Canadian companies are now legally permitted to bid on contracts to rebuild Iraqi infrastructure.

No word on whether other opposition countries will also be allowed.

"Hating everyone protects me from elitism."

So how many of you guys have taken him up on that one?

"Why try so hard to fit in when you were born to stand out!!"

Hey that is great news , we (us) is willing to allow you to do that in Iraq. Aren't we so kind?

"Terrorist or tyrant, few may come to the Truth that both are poor choice."

My thoughts exactly.

"Hating everyone protects me from elitism."

George Bush Jr. "What a damned mess we have here papy..."
George Bush Sr."Damn it boy what did I tell you when you were a child- find someone else to clean up youir messes!"
George Bush Jr. "Yes pa, I know- hey I got me an Idea!- let's get the Canadians to do it!"
George Bush Sr. "I done taught you well boy..."

"No one ever won a war by sitting in a ditch"

No wonder we are soo hated by other countries!

"A fool says I know and a wise man says I wonder."

Nobody said you had to so dont.

i say let them rebuild it themselves... we (the us) funds the money we already are example...i work construction and plywood and OSB (oriented strand board) was around $13 a sheet last year at this time now it is $27 a sheet we are sending it all over there to rebuild and we are paying the price literally so let them do the work on rebuilding and we will pay for it

i'm sorry u misunderstood me , thats what it costs here and thats what we pay for it, because we are sending it all over there to rebuild and it doubled in price all in one day not like gas which raised in price over time

So you are saying that we buy american products to promote retail sales, which is used for (re)building Iraq to american specification, right?

"Terrorist or tyrant, few may come to the Truth that both are poor choice."

i'm not saying that we build it to american specs. i'm just saying that the day we said that we were going to rebuild iraq the price in plywood doubled and i know that we are just shipping it over seas to rebuild iraq so what is all of the money going to do you realize how much more it costs to build a house now? its redicoulas! its all one big money scheme

Right on your are in the Pinkof things, it is a scam, in fact it alsways has been.Just like hiking the price of gas $.10 / gal. when the supply raise the cost of crude $.01 / gal., Mr Pink.
When I worked construction, I would bid on work, as a basic rule I would, say,
the price of labor = the price of labor & I use this figure to apply a per cent of profit margin.
If the cost of living increases so I increase my profit margin? the price of material is higher => the cost of labor increases => so now I increase my % as well so the cost has risen by a greater proportion!
I make more money for the same work, while the consumer see a substantial increase of cost. Then add volume factor then I see windfall profits from slight increase in cost! What a gold mine, everyone should do it & many do so what happens?
Another increase in the cost of living & I get to do it all over again. I think this called an inflationary spiral?

deficite+war=money it has always been that way from what i've seen and herd but it is all one big scheme and there is nothing anyone can do about it so we just pay the price, literally, have a good day
