Report: Cheney Coordinated Halliburton Iraq Contract
(AFP) - A Pentagon e-mail said Vice President Dick Cheney coordinated a huge Halliburton government contract for Iraq, despite Cheney's denial of interest in the company he ran until 2000. The March 5, 2003 e-mail, from an Army Corps of Engineers official, said that top Pentagon official Douglas Feith got the job of shepherding the contract, according to the newsweekly Time that hits newsstands Monday.

What was too funny though is on this page was a */cheney campaign ad.
Also what I liked was that you were allowed rate the ad.
Kinda cool.

1. This action alone is worthy of impeachment.

But with BushCo scandal overload, this story will come out on page 18 of the Metro section.

4. Crony Capitalism at its worst.

Unbridled capitalism is dubious enough, imo, but when it is mixed with governmental corruption, it makes me sick.
