Nappy- Here is another question for you:   Why is it politically incorrect to say "mexican judge" but it is perfectly fine to say "white jury"?

[baddog]

Nothing wrong with the word Mexican. I don't go out for Hispanic food.

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

  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

 , 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.

Well Nappy, what say you?  I would like to add that the largest direct/indirect shareholder of Halliburton at that time was LadyBird Johnson

Don't forget Brown and Root. They made gazillions off Vietnam.

[Bonetex]

They also employed thousands of people.

Got a lot killed by prolonging a war that was not planned to win, thus able to make even more money.

If you just pull up a picture of Cheney, you will know that he profited somehow, kinda reminds me of one of the bad guys from gotham city

I admire your  omniscience.  So, even though Cheney signed a legal and binding document giving all Halliburton profits to charity, you somehow "know" ( by looking at his pic, of course- very good evidence) that he made money personally off the war?

Ok, heres another example, if the clintons had done the exact thing that cheney did with the charity, would you trust that, I definately would't. It's not just cheney. It's a shame, but what politician can we give 100% trust to? What politician does not lie? I like some of them, but trust is different.

So even if he didn't give any of his stock options to charity, what's wrong with that...why do so many people like yourself hate rich folks (unless they're democrats)?

[stevenash]

Nappy, how does any of what you printed relate to the War in Iraq.  What you printed is fairly typical for executives of major companies.    Looks to me like his compensation came to him before the war took place.  So get off that bandwagon that believes Cheney somehow created the war for his personal benefit.  I also remember when Hillary Clinton stated they were broke when they left the Whitehouse.  Now they are worth somewhere around 150 million.  What kind of "work" generated that value?  Bill Gates, Warren Buffet, and Larry Ellison ( CEO of Oracle are all Democrats)

Lol, not gonna happen sn.  Cheney is associated with Bush.  Bush has been the Democratic "buzzword" retort to all political problems.  I think nappy is intelligent enough to realize Bush had ample reasons to go to war in Iraq, so he just substituted Cheney as his target.  

I actually think there must be a book they all have, "Socialism for Dummies".  Example:   When confronted in a political discussion that you can't win, just say Bush.   When losing a discussion on social issues, just say racist.   You get the idea.
