And for the record, no one really gives a damn about him and his dizzy daughter either. The man is like herpes once he is gone no one notices but as soon as he returns he is nothing but a big chancre sore on the nerve of America
What profits were those?

Is Cheney suppose to just allow himself and their record to be punched without hitting back???
Is it citizen kane or Crack Cocaine? Bush/Cheney FU Big Time! Obama not until recently started to remind those of you with short term memories that the country was messed up before he took office. I guess Cheney's Office being a separate branch did not get the memo that him and buddy bush was messing up the country chasing WMD's that did not exist and making millions in the process. Which reminds me how can you shoot someone in the face and get away with it. If he did not use so many deferments to get him out of the war he proably would have been taught how to shoot straight

A Kerry ad implies Cheney has a financial interest in Halliburton and is profiting from the company's contracts in Iraq. The fact is, Cheney doesn't gain a penny from Halliburton's contracts, and almost certainly won't lose even if Halliburton goes bankrupt. So to sum up, this Kerry ad's implication that Cheney has a financial interest in Halliburton is unfounded and the $2 million figure is flat wrong.

That is really strange that you mentioned this b/c I have always believe that to be true. Has anyone really noticed that no matter how badly Bush screwed up no one DARED to try to kill him? Do you know why? B/c it is easier to deal with a known fool than to deal with a established lunatic!

As a military veteran who have seen first hand the (no-bid) profits of halliburton which apparently you must have forgotten that he has MAJOR stakes in the well being of the company or perhaps you must have been blinded by the BS snow job that he and his administration used to go into IRAQ in the first place
