Let's not forget who profited by selling nuclear technology to Iran in the first place.



Halliburton, the notorious U.S. energy company, sold key nuclear-reactor components to a private Iranian oil company called Oriental Oil Kish as recently as 2005, using offshore subsidiaries to circumvent U.S. sanctions.

he was getting 5 mil. a year from Halliburton while he was VP.
Of course, he returned to Halliburton afterwards. Talking G R E E D Y,
why else did he force W to start the wars in the first place. (He WAS the 'real'
president, now wasn't he? )

Not to say I disagree but the argument is more forceful when we can bring in the documentation.

Oh, the correct past participle of "profit" is "profited". I guess that makes me a pedantic...

I am not President Obama's biggest fan, but when I heard Dick Cheney said that Obama was the worst president of his lifetime, well all I can say is, "What a fucking asshole."

in this thread was the photo of Cheney in a cowboy hat. It absolutely symbolizes the lying, greedy, arrogant bastard that he's been and is today. The Haliburton pension is why he will never, never apologize for Iraq.
