Why should a corporation like Halliburton not be prosecuted?
There are many more corporations that could be mentioned but since Richard Cheney is so inimately connected to this one why should corrupt organizations wield so much political influence, to the point of shaping foreign policy?

That's criminal and fascist.

Here's a link to CorpWatch's Halliburton page.

Mr. Cheney and all his pals at Halliburton "rebuilder of Iraq", share your political views on this.

It might happen when Cheney is no longer on both payrolls.

3. The Congress more than once voted not to investigate fraud.
And Bush has used signing statements to avoid investigations as well. This is an outrage and should be hammered BY the MSM; as if. Democrats should use this over and over and over again to bolster the Culture of Corruption mantra.

4. Cheney has million of dollars worth of stock options on Halliburton.
If the stock tanked, poor Dick would be poor. The rise from $8 to $80 (MOL) has made Cheney a multi-millionaire several times over.
