Photo of Dick Cheney with a Halliburton ‘kickback’ check stuck to his shoe

WASHINGTON’S respected Beltway Underground newspaper has
found and is set to
publish a bombshell photograph the White House doesn’t want you to see (left) - Vice
President Dick Cheney with a seven-figure Halliburton Co. check stuck to his expensive
Italian shoe, reliable sources confirm.
And to make matters worse, the telltale picture was taken just days after Cheney
told a Republican fundraiser that he “long ago severed ties” with the corporate
giant that used to pay him millions as its CEO.
Cheney’s continuing and possibly unethical association with Halliburton became a
hot topic when the firm won $18 billion dollar, “no bid” contract from the Bush
administration to help rebuild war-ravaged Iraq and also supply U.S. troops with fuel and
food.
Within weeks, the vice president’s old firm was caught overcharging the Pentagon
for hundreds of millions of dollars worth of diesel fuel for military vehicles and rations
that U.S. troops still haven’t received.
“I categorically deny having anything to do with that company, in public at least,
in quite awhile,” Cheney reportedly chortled with a wink to fat cats attending the
fund raiser in Washington, D.C.
As for the check stuck to his shoe, he told a reporter: “For all you know,
(expletive deleted), that check is old. It could have been written long before we decided
to go to war in the months leading up to 9/11.”
Beltway Underground editors declined to comment pending publication of the
photograph, which is expected to appear in a “page-one special report” in mid
June, insiders who leaked a copy of the picture to derekclontz.com told me exclusively.
