The US Securities and Exchange Commission is conducting a formal investigation into whether Halliburton made improper payments to government officials in Nigeria in connection with the construction and expansion by TSKJ of a natural gas liquefaction complex and facilities at Bonny Island in Rivers State, Nigeria.

TSKJ is a company registered in Portugal whose members include Technip SA of France, Snamprogetti Netherlands BV, a subsidiary of Saipem SpA of Italy, JGC Corporation of Japan, and Kellogg Brown & Root, a successor to the MW Kellogg Company, each of which has a 25% interest in the venture.

.....................

And last but not least, on August 7, 2006, the Financial Times of London reported that KBR, a subsidiary of Halliburton, is being investigated by Britain's Serious Fraud Office over the company's role in an alleged plot to pay more than $170 million in bribes to win $7 billion worth of contracts at a Nigerian oil plant.

For part of the period under investigation, the newspaper reported, Halliburton was headed by Vice President Dick Cheney.

from Wonkette:


"Spotted on 10/19, by an eagle-eyed Wonkette reader: The Mid-Atlantic Shredding Services truck making its way up to the Cheney compound at the Naval Observatory."

2. As I keep telling those who oppose the impeachment of Bush

As I keep telling those who oppose impeachment on the grounds that it would make Cheney president, we impeach simultaneously.

Bush and Cheney are both guilty of manipulating intelligence to gain public and congressional support for the war against Iraq and torturing combat detainees and terror "suspects" in secret gulags. However, Cheney is the one we can nail for conflict of interest over Halliburton's no bid contracts and this kind of thing.

Impeachment, bartender, and make that a double.

5. This one won't go away

Though Cheney has done a masterful job of slowing it down as long as possible.
