  12. The U.S. invasion “was the right thing to do, and if we had to do it again, we would do exactly the same thing.” - Cheney, Meet the Press, Sept. 2006

    Approximately 400,000 Iraqis and more than 4,000 US military personnel are dead and many thousands more maimed and crippled.. Innocent Iraqis were tortured and humiliated at Abu Ghraib prison for years.


    Cheney was the former CEO of Halliburton. Cheney’s leaving golden handshake package was valued at $13 million, with his stock options worth about $35 million in 2001.

    In October 2002 The Wall Street Journal had reported that Halliburton officials met informally with representatives of Vice President Cheney's office back to figure out how best to jumpstart Iraq's oil industry following a war. Cheney and Halliburton denied it.

    In January 2004, the Army awards Halliburton subsidiary KBR a contract worth up to $1.2 billion to rebuild the oil industry in southern Iraq.

    Absolutely no RIP from me.
