New Evidence Shows Cheney Continues Relationship with Halliburton in Violation of Government Ethics
U.S. Newswire, June, 2004
WASHINGTON, June 14 /U.S. Newswire/ -- The Pentagon admitted last week that Vice President Richard Cheney's office was informed before the Iraq war about the decision to overrule objections from the Army's own lawyers and award Halliburton a no-bid contract in Iraq.
The decision -- which led to a sole-source contract worth up to $7 billion -- was made by a "political appointee" of the Bush administration. This new information was disclosed today in a letter from Congressman Henry Waxman (D-Calif.) to Vice President Cheney. Waxman discovered the information after meeting with Pentagon officials last week.
