Blackwater founder cutting ties with company

RALEIGH, N.C. – The man who built Blackwater USA into one of the world's most respected and reviled defense contractors will no longer be involved in the company's operations.
A spokeswoman for the company, now called Xe (zee), said Wednesday that Erik Prince will relinquish involvement in its day-to-day operations and give up some of his ownership rights. Prince had appointed a new president and chief operating officer in a management shake-up earlier this year.
Spokeswoman Stacy DeLuke says Prince felt he was "constantly being thrown under the bus" after serving the country for years

So the founder is cutting ties with his company... although it sounds like he is still going to keep some ownership of the company.

Erik Prince says that he feels like he is being thrown under the bus... LOL... Now that's funny. What else did he think that these politicians would do with him? Wasn't that the reason why they hired his company in the first place.

Hell not he is not "cutting ties" he is just having somebody else in the front lines to be bashed and deal with, while he seats in the back and keep doing his dirty business, men like Prince thinks that they are in the highest hierarchy when it comes to humanity.

Poor guy!

Maybe he can pad himself up with all the millions of dollars he made (guys on the ground made for him) out in the Sand Pit. That should help lessen the impact of the bus????

"Spokeswoman Stacy DeLuke says Prince felt he was "constantly being thrown under the bus" after serving the country for years"

I wonder how many people his employees literally threw under buses in New Orleans and Iraq?

Xe probably wasn't Cursader enough for him.

Now he will take set in motion his true intentions. COBRA!!!!

Is anyone up on the Blackwater/Hardin, Montana connection?
Also that convicted CIA dude Cohen?

Why we hate blackwater: Because the founder feels that he is being thrown under the bus. Boohoo.

Meanwhile, his employees are actually throwing people under buses. Who should we feel sorry for -- the billionaire mercenary, or the victims of his US sanctioned war on defenseless Iraqis... I dunno, that's a tough one.

He will not be missed.
