In the Bush Administration it is now not uncommon for Halliburton, to get almost all the government contracts that they want. Vice President Dick Cheney, was the chief executive officer from 1995 until 2000 of Halliburton and still brings in over $100,000 per year from the company. And that shows in the number and amount of each contact that Halliburton is getting, both at home and abroad. According to CNN, "tax filings released in April...included $194,852 in deferred pay from the company."
