#2 Becoming a tool of MoveOn.org is not gonna do wonders for her credibility. And if she thinks they're doing this out of the goodness of their hearts, she'd be quite wrong.

#3 Barracks - where they live and sleep.

Not the first time either. Tracy Barker, KBR contractor, wife of US Army sergeant:
The Department of Justice declined to prosecute a State Department employee who allegedly sexually assaulted a female Halliburton/KBR worker in Iraq, despite a recommendation from the State Department that he be charged, according to an internal document obtained by ABC News.

Ali Mokhtare, who is still employed by the State Department, was investigated in 2005 after a female Halliburton/KBR employee said he sexually assaulted her at the company-run camp in Basra, Iraq. Mokhtare was a diplomatic official in Basra who first came to Iraq as a Farsi translator interviewing detainees.

The U.S. Diplomatic Security Service investigated the allegations against Mokhtare and presented the case to the Justice Department for prosecution, but "the case was declined for prosecution" states the document.
