http://money.cnn.com/2003/09/16/news/companies/halliburton/index.htm"Sen. Lautenberg also listed Halliburton stock options that are shown on Cheney's financial disclosure form -- some 233,000 shares in all that vest between 2007 and 2009.
The Cheney aide said that on January 18, 2001 -- just before being sworn in as vice president -- Cheney assigned all of his Halliburton stock options to a charitable trust.
"He legally and irrevocably assigned them and he receives no tax benefit from them," the Cheney aide said. This aide said the trustee of the trust decides when to sell them."
I for one say open the books FAT MAN. I'd love to know more about this "charitable trust" and its "Trustee". Sorry, but this stinks to high heaven.
