During the Iraqi embargo... Haliburton financed Iraq heavily w/ Dick Cheney at the helm.

Among the things they gave to Iraq? Pulse Generators.

Didn't Dubyah Shrub and Dirty Dicky make a packet exiting Haliburton before it crashed under Chapter 11?

Well, their payouts deserve SOME recognition . . . was the alleged $24 million to Dubyah the same as the one million from IT&T to his predecessor, Nixon . . . like I say, AmeriKKKa the best democracy money can buy.
