Dems seek to strip VP Cheney of $500K

[Unknown Known]

Lautenberg, Durbin, Feingold and Biden

Tomorrow Lautenberg files the amendment to the $87 billion reconstruction supplemental bill that is currently before the Senate.

Senate Democrats want to deprive Vice President Dick Cheney of close to $500,000 in deferred compensation he is scheduled to receive from Halliburton, the energy company he once headed, and to divest himself of over 400,000 stock options he holds in the firm.

1. Can't understand how it was tolerated this long

and I don't get why people haven't been rioting in the streets. But that we had a Dem controlled house.

[Democat]

2. What Cheney is doing should be a crime

The guy is starting wars to make more money for the company he still works for.

6. On the contrary Bush (Karl Rove) started the war Chenney is just VP

Although the influence was absolutely there you could never prove it.

3. hahahahahaha....hope the Democrats take cheney to the cleaners...

that nasty-ass looks real sick too....wonder when he'll leave for 'health reasons'...it really makes no sense at this time for bush* to drag this criminal along through a pResidential campaign...

the big plus for reTHUGlicans would be to replace cheney with a 'carlyle choice' VP, who might help bush* hold onto power, but if not...bush* does a nixon, leaving on the pResidential helicopter with the peace sign and the "I am not a crook" speech....then the carlyle group moves their chosen VP up and runs the 2004 election from the power position (that was the part of the nixon shuffle that the chosen pres/chosen VP...Gerald Ford and Nelson Rockerfeller...screwed up big time...but with Diebold voting machines, that won't happen again)....

[frank frankly]

4. yes, one tutu at a time

Dick Cheney, pay up, then get the fuck out of the WH!

5. I'm sure this amendment won't pass

but it'll sure be fun watching them bring it to the floor and pissing on Cheney's head!

Pretty boy Bremer ain't gonna get his money as easy as him thought him would!

More sunlight, more sunlight. Open the damn windows. This place smells like a flophouse:puke:
