So who really made money out of this administration? Can you spell Haliburton kids. Have people forgotten March 2007?
Quote:
U.S. oil services firm Halliburton Co. is shifting its corporate headquarters and chief executive from Houston to Dubai in a move that immediately sparked criticism from U.S. members of Congress.
Halliburton Chief Executive Dave Lesar, speaking at an energy conference in nearby Bahrain, said he will relocate to Dubai from Texas to oversee Halliburton's intensified focus on business in the Mideast and energy-hungry Asia, home to some of the world's most important oil and gas markets.
"Halliburton is opening its corporate headquarters in Dubai while maintaining a corporate office in Houston," spokeswoman Cathy Mann said. "The chairman, president and CEO will office from and be based in Dubai to run the company from the UAE."
Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., called the decision to move as "an example of corporate greed at its worst."

President Cheney knew what he was doing. He saw the writing on the wall. Stole trillions and moved the company out of reach of US Tax laws.
And that was hardly a blip. Very few noticed or cared.
