BLT:
Embattled government contractor Blackwater Worldwide has lawyered up in an effort to begin salvaging its reputation and its government contracts. Beth Nolan is one of Blackwater’s Washington lawyers. She served as white house counsel for the last two years of Pres. Bill Clinton’s administration, and is slated to become vice president and general counsel at George Washington University at the end of the month. White-collar defender Stephen Ryan, head of the government strategies practice at McDermott Will & Emery in Washington, is also on Team Blackwater. The contractor’s head lobbyist is Paul Behrends. He works at C & M Captiolink in D.C., but previously worked at Republican firm Alexander Strategy Group. Read more about Blackwater’s defense effort in today’s NYT.

Yes Blackwater has not only committed murder but they are also suited up for assassinations of who the Bush Administration tells them to kill. We have no CIA cover agents since Cheney leaked Plames name. Now the contractors like Blackwater are the new Jack Bauer's and will kill on demand as ordered by the White House.
