Being a Texan, I DO remember the fiasco about Halliburton buying Dresser which turned out badly. Who else to blame it on but the CEO. Although he received a separation package, he was not seen in good light by those left at Halliburton.
In short he was as my old boss used to say "seeking other opportunities outside the company", aka fired. IF what you said is true, why does everyone think that Cheney would bother to help his old company out unless he had to? What is his motive? I thought that you need means, motive and opportunity? What is his motive? To atone for his mistakes or "different" orders that he gave?
