This put a grin on our faces this morning: the Government of Nigeria has charged former (Vice) President "The Dick" Cheney with bribery, stemming from his position as CEO of Halliburton from 1995 to 2000. The charges involve the payment of a $180 million bribe by Halliburton to secure a multi-billion dollar liquid natural gas contract with Nigeria during that period.
The Nigerians say that they will issue an arrest warrant to be served by Interpol (good luck getting past The Dick's Secret Service guards). Sadly, it will almost certainly come to nothing. Hopefully, however, we'll learn more details of The Dick's role in the bribery case before the Grim Reaper harvests him.
