Incidentally, I was surprised to hear that VP Cheney has over
400,000 shares of Halliburton options that are due when he leaves
office in 2009. Isn't there at least a bit of conflict of interest
there?

So are we going to make a rule that a company can't do business with the
government if somebody who used to work for them is in government? This
will solve the homeless problem you are so worried about. They can be
government employees.

As far as no bid contract. There really aren't that many companies capable
of fulfilling the contract if any other than H.

And Halliburton, for that reason, has been getting no-bid contracts since
the early 90's.

(Note to the clueless and the mental basket cases (yes, YOU, Larry): Cheney
has only been VP since 2001.)
