Nigeria to charge Dick Cheney in $180 million bribery case, issue Interpol arrest warrant

The energy services company Dick Cheney ran prior to becoming Vice President of the United States was atop the tongue of liberals each time it was awarded a contract in Iraq.

Now the company's name, Halliburton, is being spoken somewhere else: Nigeria.

not that any contract is awarded without bribes.... but its nice to see Nigeria stepping in here.... according to the article....

"Last week, Nigeria arrested at least 23 officials from companies including Halliburton, Saipem, Technip and a former subsidiary of Panalpina Welttransport Holding AG in connection with alleged illegal payments to Nigerian officials. Those detained were all freed on bail on Nov. 29," Bloomberg News' Elisha Bala-Gbogbo wrote.

"Authorities in the West African nation are probing Halliburton, Saipem and Technip for the alleged payment of $180 million in bribes to win a $6 billion liquefied natural-gas contract," Bala-Gbogbo added.

well, Nigeria rings a few bells with people re fraudulent financial e-mails, etc.... anyhoo... this is serious stuff....

what do you think will transpire from this?

That's not the OFFICIAL Whitehouse site. It's a parody site.

See on the top banner it says "Officious Website of President George W Bush".

The OFFICIAL Whitehouse site is whitehouse.gov .
