[quote]The Nigerian government said it would bring charges against former U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney i[U][/U][URL="http://www.upi.com/topic/Dick_Cheney/"][/URL]n an alleged Halliburton bribery scandal. The charges would involve engineering firm KBR, a subsidiary of the energy firm of the energy firm of which Cheney was chief executive officer before becoming vice president in 2001, the BBC and the British newspaper The Guardian reported Thursday.
KBR last year pleaded guilty in the United States to bribing Nigerian officials with $180 million prior to 2007 when it was still an affiliate of Halliburton. KBR agreed to pay fines in the amount of $579 million.
Nigeria, France and Switzerland, however, have conducted their own investigations.
KBR and Halliburton are no longer connected, and Halliburton said it has nothing to do with the case against KBR.[/quote]
Saw it on BBC earlier, but I can't find the link. But yeah, second charge for this shady little fucker. Let's hope they lock him and Bush in the same cell.

you're kind of forgetting that they are no longer in office and most of the world hates them anyways, so nobody would really give a shit.

You're so deliciously naive. Don't you realize how much pull Dick Cheney has with the Republicans? Not to mention a wealth of corporations, diplomats and other behind the scenes players. He wasn't the eminence grise of the Bush administration without reason.

As a liberal I hate to agree with rednecks, but he's right. Cheney has money and lots of influential connections, this won't amount to anything.

Not to mention that if you kill him, he only gets banished from the prime material plane for another 100 years, and then comes back even stronger.

You're right, but I still am a bit optomistic about it.
It'd be pretty damn nice to see him finally get what he deserves. Even if he doesn't his reputation would be further down the shitter and if corporations came into play it'd only prove the Nigerian government's point even further.

It was just a ban for flaming with different wording.
Oh, and when I first saw the title I thought it said "Nigerian Government to Charge Cheney's Dick".
