Geeze that bribery investigation against corrupt Hal/Cheney just wont go away:

latimes.com

PARIS — A widening investigation here has implicated some of the world's largest oil services firms in an alleged scheme to bribe Nigerian officials to win $5.3 billion in contracts to build a natural gas complex in the African country.

As details of the case unfolded, one of the key players, Houston-based Halliburton Co., said that the questionable conduct occurred almost entirely before it became a partner in the multinational consortium that built the complex.

Funny how Hal changed it's Enronesque accounting practices when it was headed by Tricky Dick Cheney... tsk tsk more corruption

w.sucks.xs2.net

Only to be later Fined and exonerated of further charges by REPUBLICAN BUSINESSMEN who head the commission.

When questioned about his role in Hal as CEO, brave Tricky Dick Cheney eludes justice and takes the 5th:

Tricky Dick is still under investigation for illegally interfering with the govt. procurement and arranging juicy no-bid contracts for his buddies in Halliburton (who'll no doubt reward him again when he gets his sorry arrogant a$$ kicked out of office).

Bush will eliminate Soc Sec. Those close to retirement will feel the pinch the most in order to pay for privatization.
