It doesn't change the fact that he owns the options and the administration is giving them no bid contracts. But since I'm on ignore, you won't be reading this. Kind of like how you ignore the fact that he has a vested interest in Haliburton, irrespective of stock price. Bahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!! Republican weather forecast is sunny today, sunny tomorrow, sunny sunny sunny for as far as the eye can see!!!!!!

<If Cheney is running his office for personal profit, he is doing a poor job of it. The next trading day after Dick Cheney became Vice President, Haliburton opened at $37.75 per share. It is currently at $24.35 per share. So IF his trustee has kept the Haliburton position (which he may well not have, but Cheney doesn't know that), he has lost nearly 50 percent of the share value. If the options are still in the money at 24.35, they have declined in value by $5,360,000 since Cheney took office. > Options are often granted at a miniscule fraction of the current market price - I know, I've received such options. Even if he paid the market price... He's working VERY HARD to turn that around! B-)
