Halliburton Now I'm no Cheney fan but let's try to keep the business issues on the back burner -- pretty much WAG's right now anyway. --fl

Cheney is not dumb. He assuredly recognizes his future reputation and domicile might be riding on a Republican sweep of the November election. Imagine what a field day a Democrat-controlled Congress would have looking into how Cheney was able to cash out with $30 million after sending Halliburton down the road to possible bankruptcy, thanks to his lack of "due diligence" on a merger deal? Haven't the Democrats controlled the Senate for more than a year, or have I just been hallucinating? Isn't "lack of due diligence", even if proved, a matter for a shareholder's suit, not a criminal investigation? Scheer often writes wish-fulfilling rubbish. But he has outdone himself today.
