Certainly damning. Is there any evidence that something like this happened while Cheney was at Halliburton? At the point when this video was made, he was an ex-CEO.

Cheney still holds a tremendous amount of Halliburton stock - the fact he's an ex-ceo is immaterial.

Holding stock doesn't make someone responsible for wrongdoing by the company they hold stock in. If he had no idea whatever that they were doing something wrong (and it hasn't been shown that he did), then how is it his fault?

How can this not be obvious to you?

Cheney had/has a huge financial interest in Halliburton's success; he not only engineered the steering of giant contracts to them, he had a vested interest in making sure that they were never investigated for fraud or waste - something we KNOW took place.

If they made money, he made money.

He was in a position to ensure they made LOTS of money. Tons of it.

He did so.

And you don't see a problem there?

If you can show either that he squelched legitimate investigations of Halliburton, or that he steered contracts to them outside of a fair bidding process, or other fair decision making process, then you will have something. Can you show anything like that?

Do you really believe that Halliburton went through a bidding process to get their contracts associated with the Iraq war? Were you even paying attention at the time?

Cheney didn't personally pick up the phone and make it happen, but he did tell Don Rumsfeld to do it; and he did it.

in what universe, are the people who are in charge, not responsible for transactions in which hundreds of billions of dollars are spent - even if their subordinates carry out the transaction? Have you found this to be the case in YOUR life or business dealings? This makes no sense whatsoever.

Brandon, David

Can I assume you guys are here representing conservative Republicans
and free market philosophies?

I have those philosophies; no one has authorized me to represent him on this forum.

I very earnestly hope that Richard Cheney 's joy
will be exceeded only by the intense beauty in his life.
I hope that he will live in good health for many, many decades.
