Conflict of Interest

Fat&Happy reverted my edit that simply stated Cheney's conflict of interest via his financial ties to Haliburton (a major contractor in Iraq). So I propose the following, unfortunately much longer, version:

Although unexercised stock options and deferred salary "are among those benefits described by the Office of Government Ethics as 'retained ties' or 'linkages' to one's former employer", Cheney insisted that his unexercised stock options and deferred salary from Haliburton were not financial ties that constituted a conflict of interest while Vice-President of The United States of America.

That's using the same CBS citation as before. The other citation (from a video documentary) isn't really necessary but it already existed on the Cheney page before I touched it. Fat&Happy deems it not reliable even though it seems to meet the Wikipedia requirements for reliability. The director made Xanadu (yes, the movie starring Olivia Newton-John) but has gone on to make political documentaries. Any question of bias in these documentaries is irrelevant because Wikipedia states "reliable sources are not required to be neutral, unbiased, or objective".

Cameo in the movie Talledega Nights

He played a cameo in the original, uncut, 2006 movie, Talledega Nights. Near the end of the movie, he is sitting in a luxury box, when he suggests that Halliburton is a good stock to buy into at the time.

Information of him in the movie is all but impossible to find on the internet. Years previous to this, one could find it.

It should be made public, as he was vice president at the time, and it was in a major Hollywood picture.

Thank You
