<< The article you posted does discuss that a Halliburton bankruptcy might reduce his deferred compensation, so there is a very minor but possible conflict of interest. >> Actually, it says the OPPOSITE. Read the article a little more closely: "So to insulate himself from that possible conflict, Cheney purchased an insurance policy (which cost him$14,903) that promises to pay him all the deferred compensation that Halliburton owes him even if the company goes bust" There is no conflict of interest. Cheney was honest enough to eliminate just about every possibility of a conflict (knowing that the disingenuous left would spew their hate via the usual personal attacks and conspiracy theories.)
