Dick Cheney Questioned

[drbastard]

I just read an article on how the Senate Dems are asking how Dickhead Cheney is able to still get paid from Halliburton, despite the fact that he's supposed to have "no financial interest" in that shit-eating oil company since he became the fake VP.

It looks like he claims that he took out an insurance policy that enabled him to get paid no matter what:

"Cheney had already earned the salary that was now being paid, Martin said, adding that once he became a nominee for vice president, he purchased an insurance policy to guarantee that the deferred salary would be paid to him whether or not Halliburton survived as a company."

Is it just me, or is my BS detector working properly. Despite the fact I've learned to not believe anything any Administration assholes say, has anybody here ever heard of getting an "insurance policy" that pays you even after you leave the company?

Also, what are the legal implications of Cheney still having a connection to Halliburton while being VP?

3. The insurance policy was being VP and enabling

contracts to go to Halliburton so that he could be paid!!! That was an insurance policy for Halliburton too.

Seriously, where do you get that kind of insurance and I wonder who pays the premiums?

4. Maybe we should email Tim Russert

Looks like there are a lot of questions Timmy neglected to ask his Satanic overlord:

1. You said you didn't have any influence over the government granting open-ended contracts to Halliburton, Mr. Cheney, do you stand to make a buck or two nevertheless?

2. You said that Saddam had something to do with the planning and execution of the September 11 attacks. Since you made that statement, Secretary of Defense Rumsfeld, National Security Advisor Rice, and an official communiqué from the White House have all denied that Saddam had anything to do with September 11, and furthermore, that this administration had never said that Saddam was involved with September 11. Does that mean you don't have the first fucking clue what you're talking about?

3. Assuming that the latest statements out of your administration are true, and Saddam wasn't involved in the September 11 attacks, and that your administration never said he was, why do you suppose 69% of the respondents to a recent Washington Post poll said that Saddam was behind the September 11 attacks? Are 69% of the American people suffering from a mass delusion that has nothing to do whatsoever with what your administration isn't saying? Is this evidence of another terrorist attack?

4. Can I give you change for that twenty, or just credit it to your account next time I give you a handjob on Meet the Press?
