Perspectives on America from Abroad

Chief Marionette Cheney defrauding shareholders by overstating Halliburton revenues while chief executive of that oil services firm?? I don't believe that for a minute! Why, just LOOK at the man's integrity! That honest face, those friendly eyes!! And Howdy Dubya while on the Harken Energy board of directors (a position gained thanks to his incisive intellect, not family connections; that's the way integrity works!) taking two questionable loans from that very firm? I don't believe that either! It simply isn't true!! (For more blatant lies of this ilk, click
here!) Who could make such accusations against these men, with their impeccable histories in politics and the oil trade, who worked in the shadow of the Big Bush (who by the way also made millions, perfectly legally as well, from--what was the name of that company again--oh yeah, Enron. As the White House spokesman says, "This suit is without merit, and that's where it stands." That should put these baseless accusations to rest. And now let's get back to drilling in Yellowstone and Yosemite and all the other ridiculous national parks, as well as your backyard, so some folks who shall remain nameless can make some serious money, all on the up and up. Dubya will put the real corporate criminals in jail. And while you're waiting, just stand under the elephant's tail.
