Reply-To: sgt.fongericleeus@yahoo.com.hkHello,
My name is Sgt.Fong Eric Lee, a (SGT) in the U.S Army presently in Afghanistan as a combat instructor. During one of our duty assignment early this year in (IRAQ), we stumbled on an Al-qaeda dump site where many arms and plenty cash in U.S. dollars and pounds where discovered in barrels at a farm house near one of Saddam Hussein old palace in Tikrit -Iraq during a rescue operation.
It was agreed by Staff Sgt. Kenneth Buff and myself that some part of this money be shared between both of us before informing anybody about it since both of us saw the money first,(Eight Million Dollars) was given to me as my own share, but I tell you what! No compensation can make up for the risk we have taken with our lives.
So I’m seeking your kind assistance to move this funds to you as far as I can be assured that my share will be safe in your care until I complete my service here in (AFGHANISTAN).Please respond for further details.
Sincerly,
Sgt.Fong Eric Lee.
Now Sgt. Fong Eric Lee has apparently taken great risk with his life, trying to take back this cash from those Al-Qaeda boys, surely I must help him… after all, who couldn’t use a few extra million, right?
So the stimulus bill hasn’t done squat for jobs here… but China and other foreign nations?
You betcha!

Well look who’s got a huge (no bid?) contract in Iraq…
KBR wins contract for work in Iraq
By BLOOMBERG NEWS

KBR has received its first contract for logistics services in Iraq under a new competitive bidding structure that ended its sole-source work, the Army said Tuesday.Houston-based KBR won a one-year $571 million contract with four option years that, if exercised, could be as high as $2.8 billion, Army spokesman Dan Carlson said.
The contract calls for KBR to provide services including transportation and postal operations, he said in a statement.
KBR (Kellogg Brown & Root) is the former subsidiary of that eeeevil Halliburton, and is the company that was awarded those huge contracts during start of the 2003 Iraq offensives. They’ve been around for some time, though. They also received contracts during WWII, Vietnam, post-Desert Storm, and I remember them being there with me in Kosovo too… but it was only under President Bush’s terms, there was outcry.
They’re the only company with the experience and man-power big enough to pull off the logistics that are requested by Uncle Sam, but when a Republican is in office, the libs cry-fowl – “Cheney!” “No bid contract!” “Evil big corporation!”
Will there by outcry this time? Probably not. There wasn’t any under Johnson, or Clinton.. and what Party is Obama with? oh yes, that’s right…
From Breitbart, Bush tells aides he seeks ‘anonymity’
Former US president George W. Bush told a group of his White House aides at a breakfast Friday that he is “trying to regain a sense of anonymity,” an event attendee confirmed to AFP.
Bush also told the group that he was pleased former vice president Dick Cheney had taken a lead role in defending their national security policies, declaring: “I’m glad Cheney is out there.”The former president, who also touted his administration’s domestic agenda, said he was resolved to keep a low profile and indicated he did not want to be a thorn in the side of President Barack Obama.
“I have no desire to see myself on television. I don’t want to be on a panel of formers instructing the currents on what to do. I’m trying to regain a sense of anonymity,” Bush said.
“I didn’t like it when a certain former president — and it wasn’t 41 or 42 — made my life miserable,” he said in a reference to Jimmy Carter, who infuriated the Bush White House in 2007 when he accused the administration of allowing the use of torture on terror suspects.
The online political publication Politico first reported the remarks at the breakfast, which was closed to the media.
Second to last paragraph about Carter summarizes it well. I didn’t agree with everything he did while in office (immigration, spending, etc.), but he was (and still is) a decent man, with a respect and dignity for the Office of the President. I only wish he would have defended himself more, while in office, under constant (and often libelous) attack by the left.
Barrack Obama was touring the countryside in his chauffeur-driven limo. Suddenly, a male donkey jumps out onto the road, they hit it full on and the car comes to a stop.
Obama says to the chauffeur: ‘You get out and check, you were driving.’
The chauffeur gets out, checks and reports that the animal is dead.
‘You were driving; go and tell the farmer,’ says Obama.
Hours later, the chauffeur returns totally plastered, hair ruffled with a big grin on his face.
‘My god man, what happened to you?’ asks Obama.
The chauffeur replies: ‘When I got there, the farmer opened his best bottle of whiskey, the wife gave me a slap-up meal and the daughter made love to me.’
‘What on earth did you say to them?’ asks Obama.
‘I knocked on the door, and when it was answered, I said to them, I’m Barrack Obama’s chauffeur and I’ve just killed the jackass.’
Here is what Obama needs to have set up to talk to a few school children. He still needs to have the teleprompters, and even his glorious podium with the Presidential Seal. Not much room for kids there, huh?
I guess the secret service guy in back keeps eye out for any terrorist-type-8-year-olds with tea partying parents…
Here’s what the last guy needed.
