State of the Union address: on Corporations


Nancy Pelosi: Replace no-bid contracts with diplomatic engagement

Instead of billions of dollars in no-bid contracts for politically connected firms like Halliburton, and an insistence on American dominance in Iraq, let us share the burden and responsibility with others, so that together we can end the sense of American occupation and bring troops home safely when their mission is completed. Instead of diplomatic disengagement let us seek to forge coalitions, so that together with others we can address challenges before they threaten the security of the world.
