Like other Republicans, Carly Fiorina supported corporate profit over national security.
Senator John McCain’s Chief Economic Adviser, Carly Fiorina, was CEO of Hewlett-Packard (HP) when the company surreptitiously avoided the trade boycott of Iran. McCain, who recently urged further divestment from Iran, picked Fiorina to be his top adviser on the economy while she is also serving as head of the Republican National Committee Victory Fund. It was under Fiorina’s leadership as CEO that, according to an April 19, 2004, Forbes article titled “Trading With The Enemy,” HP traded with the Iranians.
Also, she was a total failure.
Ooh, ooh, will he “throw her under the bus?”
I’m not holding my breath.
To quote the word of Dick, “So?”
When Clinton was president, Cheney (as ceo of Halliburton) did buisness with all the countries in the Axis-of-evil. Sanctions? Fuck ‘em. Cheney did the buisness & got the millions.
How pre-9/11 of you, Dave.
Fiorina did to HP what Bush did to America. Under her watch, HP lost over half its market value and laid off 7000 workers. She was eventually fired by the board and received a $20 million golden parachute. No word on what those 7000 fired workers got. I’m guessing it wasn’t $20 million.
