You know, I really don't care what Cheney did outside the Whitehouse. Yo me that is an entirely different matter and is not of issue. The problem I have with Cheney and Halliburton is the potential for impropriaty in provision of contracts while Cheney is office. That is where conflict of interest comes in. This is where the examination should take place. Kind of like Bush and his National Guard, or Kerry and his VVAW stuff, it isn't relevant on what is going on today. What is relevant is what has happened in the last four years. If Cheney has allowed for sweetheart deals for Halliburton while he is in office, then that's what matters. Focus on that, not what he did prior to becoming Vice President.
