Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs
Saturday, February 14, 2009

The scandal-ridden security firm Blackwater USA is officially changing its name effective immediately as the company moves to rebrand itself after being fired last month by the State Department from its job protecting diplomats in Iraq. The company will now be known as Xe and hopes to be a "one-stop shopping source for world class services in the fields of security, stability, aviation, training and logistics", according to a memo sent by company president Gary Jackson to employees today.

Xe is also the periodic table of elements symbol for Xeon. Colorless. Odorless. Think that says anything about their business philosophy?

Awwwwww......so close, but I'm sorry. Wrong again.

Please Play Again Soon!

Diebold did the same

and Haliburton moved to Abu Dabai, don't want any legal entanglements when the truth comes out.

Kinda like 'Liberal' switching to 'Progressive', eh?

...'Illegal Alien' switching to 'Migrant Worker'...

...'Global Warming' switching to 'Climate Change'...

let me play too...."commie country" switching to "Number one trading partner and US debt holder"

I hope they decide to ring in a new era of torture, murder, and mayhem. Seriously.

It's a fresh start, and they have 3 new strikes to waste.

Ah, the Vista method: change the name and the colors & tell shoppers it's all new and improved... Right before you whip the sheet off the display to reveal [drum roll] the same suck in a shiny new package!

Good job Mojave! [oops! I mean Xe.]

Great. With this logic, George W. Bush can just change his name and then run for President again. Brilliant!

Blackwater will be now known as Water of Color.
