[Hidden Content] From the article: Stock Options That still would leave the possibility that Cheney could profit from his Halliburton stock options if the company's stock rises in value. However, Cheney and his wife Lynne have assigned any future profits from their stock options in Halliburton and several other companies to charity. And we're not just taking the Cheney's word for this -- we asked for a copy of the legal agreement they signed, which we post here publicly for the first time. The "Gift Trust Agreement" the Cheney's signed two days before he took office turns over power of attorney to a trust administrator to sell the options at some future time and to give the after-tax profits to three charities. The agreement specifies that 40% will go to the University of Wyoming (Cheney's home state), 40% will go to George Washington University's medical faculty to be used for tax-exempt charitable purposes, and 20% will go to Capital Partners for Education , a charity that provides financial aid for low-income students in Washington, DC to attend private and religious schools. The agreement states that it is "irrevocable and may not be terminated, waived or amended," so the Cheney's can't take back their options later.

EX SECRET SERVICE AUTHORED BOOK ON CLINTON WHITEHOUSE
LumRaiderFan replied to Hagar's topic in Political Forum
You keep referring to Hannity as Fox news...he is a commentator with an opinion. You do realize Fox has hard news on the internet and cable right. Hannity is no more Fox News than Al Sharpton or Rachel Maddow are MSNBC news (although they are close) Stop watching Hannity and read the news. -
EX SECRET SERVICE AUTHORED BOOK ON CLINTON WHITEHOUSE
LumRaiderFan replied to Hagar's topic in Political Forum
No liberal would ever want to compare Fox to the other networks as far as truthfulness. Anyone that wants to honestly compare can look at the Media Research Center. The Fox News claims from liberal are bogus, always have been, always will be...they just hate that they are crushing the liberal outlets. -
Too many low information voters that have no idea what stevenash is even talking about...don't know that the Bush administration was calling out this problem as early as 2003 I believe. Barney Frank said all was well...google it...it's all there. [Hidden Content]

[Hidden Content] From the article: Indeed, government documents indicate more than 500 detainees were released or transferred from Guantanamo while George W. Bush was president. A White House executive order issued on the second day of Obama's presidency said, " The federal government has moved more than 500 such detainees from Guantánamo, either by returning them to their home country or by releasing or transferring them to a third country." That's backed up by a fact sheet from the military task force that runs the detention camp, which says 520 detainees had been released or transferred by March 2009. Our only quibble with Hoyer is his use of the word "released." That could be interpreted to mean that under Bush, 500-plus detainees left the center and were immediately freed. But the Pentagon says there is a difference between a release and a transfer to another country. The vast majority of detainees leave Gitmo under a transfer, which means they are transported to another country that places them under some type of restrictions. Some are incarcerated in those countries because of criminal charges, while others face monitoring or travel limitations.

Same folks that created the Obamacare website must have set it up...for a nominal fee, of course.

lol...wrong again...I have seen them both express criticism for overspending and corruption on both sides...of couse, it's much more common with the dems. Heck, higher taxes and bigger government is their party platform.

All these problems mean nothing to the zero liability voter...doesn't even know what you're talking about.

Name some on this board, even 1, that agrees with every Republican. You have your parties confused over who is in lock-step with their candidates.

MOBS ATTACK TRUMP SUPPORTERS - SAN JOSE MAYOR BLAMES TRUMP
LumRaiderFan replied to Hagar's topic in Political Forum
Yes it was...the high tech PRIVATE industry was exploding. Amazing what happens when gov stays out of the way. Now if Clinton would have had things go his way, we would have have a Clintoncare disaster to deal with like the Obamacare disaster we have now. Also, one of his greatest claims, welfare reform, was the work of the new Republican congress led by Newt Gingrich, which Clinton was dragged into which he now claims as his. One more thing, you can save a lot of money by ignoring attacks on the US and not spending money to defend yourself...he chose to do that and soon after he left, Bush had to start cleaning up his mess. -

LumRaiderFan replied to Hagar's topic in Political Forum
I agree...another would have taken his place, but probably not nearly as well funded. -
Show me some data to back that up...it ain't in the construction or petroleum industry.

No one was pulling for Trump until he won...hmmmm....do you even read the crap you post.

What did Bill accomplish that you would vote for him again? -
I doubt folks from Lumberton or anywhere else are too concerned about the conclusion you draw about them..you seem to need very little evidence to brand someone a racist.
-
You don'the know anything about me and you have never seen a racist comment from me. You, however, spew them out on a regular basis...Confederate flag on the double wide...coach didn't get recognized by the "good old boy" system...blah, blah,blah. Of course, all the other folks you're going back and forth with must be from Lumberton too, right? smh

No he wasn't...but this is country gave him the opportunity to use his talent to accumulate that kind of wealth and influence. Stevenash asked a good question...why was he proud enough to fight in the Olympics for this oppressive country AND carry the torch in 2012 but not fight for them when drafted? He was a great boxer, probably the greatest, but he was also a draft dodger...that was the original question posed in the thread and that's my opinion on the matter.

Read the whole story...Trump feels there could be a conflict of interest due to his previous political opinions...mainly on immigration...and he's probably right. I'm no Trump fan and he says some dumb stuff, but doesn't come across as racist.
