"The moral imperative of giving back to the private sector that which is being stolen from them is the theme that Republicans need to defeat liberals in this decade" "The oil services company that Republican vice presidential candidate Dick Cheney ran the last five years has agreed to let him retire with a package worth an estimated at $20 million, a person familiar with the company's plan confirmed Saturday." "Cheney, who served as the company's chairman and chief executive, has said that in leaving Halliburton, which paid him $1.3 million last year, he will "take a bath" financially." "By letting Cheney treat his departure as early retirement, the directors allowed him to keep $10 million worth of stock and options he would have forfeited had he simply resigned, the company's public filings show. It was not clear whether $10 million was part of the retirement package or in addition to it, the Times said. I wonder if the Bushy Boys will have the nerve to include a self-addressed return envelope to Halliburton and Friends with each tax cut "refund"?
