1. Question? if he is in a position to make his stock options
more valuable, doesn't that mean he has a conflict of interest?

2. Also, why did he arrange for deferred income?
Why didn't he just get paid and incur the taxes and avoid the conflict of interest? what a greedy f**k. He is so damn rich and he can't bring himself to pay his fair share of taxes. What a greedy scumbag creep. He's half dead, won't even be able to spend it all, yet can't bring himself to just get paid all at once and pay the damn taxes.

3. Makes me sick
People like him make me sick... Pretend to be serving the public while serving their own greeedy/power ambitions. He's a robot anyway. The real Cheney died when he had a heart attack at 36 :)

5. Seriously
With as much as we heard about Hilary's investment income... You think that people would care about this. I bring it up and most people either just don't understand or they just don't care. Maybe a little of both.

6. Chimp made $329,819 in interest last year?
That's quite a bit considering what rates are on everything. It would take millions and millions to pull down over 329K with todays rates.
