Impeach Cheney now.

And since I left Halliburton to become George Bush’s vice president, I’ve severed all my ties with the company, gotten rid of all my financial interests. I have no financial interest in Halliburton of any kind and haven’t had now for over three years.

--Dick Cheney on Meet the Press, 9/14/03

Senate Democrats challenged Vice President Dick Cheney's recent assertion that he had severed all his ties to his former employer, the Halliburton Company, which has received more than $1 billion in federal contracts to rebuild Iraq's oil fields and provide services to the military. Senator Frank R. Lautenberg of New Jersey said Mr. Cheney's current financial disclosure form showed his holding 433,333 Halliburton stock options and continuing to receive deferred compensation.

...Catherine Martin, Mr. Cheney's spokeswoman, acknowledged that he would receive about $150,000 a year in deferred compensation from Halliburton through 2005 but said the amount was not tied to the company's fortunes in any way. The vice president bought an insurance policy to cover the compensation before he took office, Ms. Martin said, guaranteeing him the full amount even if the company went bankrupt.

"No financial interest in Halliburton": It's a lie. What else would you call it?

(UPDATE: Sorry, I haven't been keeping up as much as I need to. Obviously there's so much more dishonesty where that came from.)

(FURTHER UPDATE: I love what Billmon says about Cheney's $150,000 in deferred compensation: "Just think of it as Cheney's Iraq War finder's fee.")
