There are many interesting tidbits in history. One of the few pluses of Nixon's administration, IMO, was his foreign policy and efforts towards China. Though I've completely missed any news/stories on Kissenger that you've mentioned. Can you point me in a direction to find out more? TIA

You may recall that Dick Cheney was/is involved in the oil business [I'm not sure whether he divested himself of certain oil interests when he became VP material.] There is of course his famous response in the debates indicating the government had nothing to do with his recently acquired wealth....well, that isn't quite such a simple statement as it appears since it ignores the additional wealth built as a result of certain tax credits targetted at the oil industry.

Best Regards,
