I just have to quote a few things today from the Wayne Madsen Report. (http://www.waynemadsenreport.com/index.php) This one first:
"March 13, 2007 -- The actual reason Halliburton and its chairman David Lesar are moving their corporate digs to Dubai is that the UAE's lax laws on corporate record keeping and the opaqueness of business transactions in the emirates will allow the firm to avoid responding to congressional subpoenas for its scandalous war profiteering in Iraq, Afghanistan, and other locations. A source with extensive ties in Dubai also reports that after leaving office, Dick Cheney will be spending "a lot of time in Dubai." WMR was told that Cheney will likely start looking for property in the emirate -- there are a number of highly-secured gated communities springing up in Dubai, which is fast becoming the "Hong Kong" of the Middle East.
Halliburton will also be able to avoid paying U.S. corporate taxes as a UAE-headquartered corporation."
Maybe he can hang out with another famous but fleeing about-to-be expat: Michael Jackson.

We like the herd. But for some reason bulls seem to end up in a big pasture away from the herd. This leaves bulls lots of time to smell the flowers, paw the ground, snort, and ruminate (i.e. think and chew). [this.Bull.Effort() transmits the results to this.blog]
