Subject: Minute Maid Park

Just got back from the All Star Game festivities. Was shocked and sickened by the Halliburton Bush Cheney lovefest. Pictures of Cheney, Bush the father, KB, dumbya everywhere. There is actually one section of the premises called "Halliburton Park." I was definitely looking for my anti-war protestors.

No one made the connection on any reports I have seen thus far. One thing I noted was how Halliburton, and KB etc. have been involved in highway and STADIUM CONSTRUCTION for many years. They know where to get guaranteed money, in large amounts, very quickly, with very little oversight.

2. W* wanted to throw out the first ball when the park opened.

That's back when it was called Enron Field. Plans were cancelled--his handlers apparently didn't want the link emphasized.

"Kenny who?"
