Cheney May Face Nigerian Bribery Charges

Email this item Email    Print this item Print    Share this item... Share

Posted on Dec 2, 2010
White House / Karen Ballard

Before he was vice president, Dick Cheney ran oil giant Halliburton, a subsidiary of which once dropped $180 million in bribes on Nigerian officials. Now Nigeria’s anti-corruption agency plans to charge Cheney over the affair.

BBC:

Nigeria’s anti-corruption agency is to charge former US Vice-President Dick Cheney over a bribery scandal that involves a former subsidiary of energy firm Halliburton.

The case centres on engineering firm KBR, which admitted bribing officials.

A lawyer for Mr Cheney said allegations he was involved in the scandal were “entirely baseless”.

Here is a link from AlterNet’s Blog that gives the history fairly well of how the oligarchs took over America: http://www.alternet.org/story/149105/how_the_oligarchs_took_over_america?page=entire

Without the assistance of the Left’s Conservative Democrats it would not have been possible; the Left’s conservatives, many disguised as liberals and moderates, cooperated with the Republicans and some, like the President, are still cooperating with the Republicans to finish us off.  Remember Nancy Pelosi is the one who would not impeach Bush.  I am not sure what her tactic is now, pretending to defend the nation from the give away to the oligarchs, but one thing is for certain, it is a tactic of deceit.

The DLC are the culprits that are cooperating to bring the destruction of the United States to pass; here is a link about their dastardly deeds:  http://www.rightweb.irc-online.org/profile/Democratic_Leadership_Council  No one of the common population should listen to anything Bill Clinton says, he is the enemy of the common population.  The Clintonista DLC deserted the common population for their NEW (Neo) Professional Class of toadies to the Republicans.

There are three (3) classes and cultures in the United States:  the 70% Majority Common Population’s Class and Culture, the 20% Professional’s Academic Middle Class and Culture, and the 10% Corporate/Elite Capitalist Class and Culture.  The only middle class is the Professional Middle Class that they are always protecting.  Those who are not protected are NOT the middle class, but are of the common population.  The Professional Middle Class have their academic accolades as their capital, the Corporate/Elite Capitalists have monied capital (the CEO’s have NEW Money and the Elite Capitalists have OLD Money) while the 70% Majority Common Population, the American Populace, have no money at all, but survive on CREDIT and many think they are the middle class, and our government would lead them to believe they are the middle class, but they are the genteel common population. 

All these Professional Middle Class from the Common Population use Public Defenders when they get caught up in legal battles, but the difference is that they get high paid public defenders, while the average Joe gets the sorriest excuse for an attorney there is available.

I read in an article on the net that I can’t immediately find for you, but it said that Halliburton is going to pay $500,000,000. to protect their beloved Cheney from repercussion from his unlawful deeds in Nigeria. Of course they can afford it, since they have absconded with so much from the Common Population. I’ll try to find it.

I am glad to see that you support Wikileaks, if I had money, I would send it to them, but I don’t.  Everyone who has any hope for a real democratic society where the Common Population aren’t subjects of the Financial Aristocracy MUST support Wikileaks in every way that they can, because conservatism is about taking away freedom of the common population by destroying freedom of speech, brainwashing and programming the 70% common population as savant serfs in a feudal society where Republicans and Obama and Bill and Hillary Clinton would be our purple masters of the kingdom.

The DLC Purple Coalition is a mixture of the Democrats Blue Dog BLUE with the Republican Extremist RED to form DLC PURPLE.  The DLC Blue/Purple Dogs are who have been selling out the nation and President Obama is proud to be a member. and relies on DLC Bill Clinton to help him sell the people of the nation down the river to joblessness; there wouldn’t be any outsourcing of jobs if it had not have been for Bill Clinton’s purple cooperation with the Republican RED Extremists, selling out the nation as a whole.  Anytime you see pundits and politicians in the REPUBLICAN’S Purple media wearing purple ties, it is a sign of cooperation in the aristocratic kingdom.  Early on, Democrats on the Democratic Blog, would defend the coalition to the point I was kicked off the Democratic “Kicking Ass” Blog, then when Governor Dean took over I was allowed to stay and say whatever I wanted to, but when Gov. Dean left, they set the system up so that everything I said would be hid, so that it didn’t matter what I said.

Yes, it was a long term process by conservatism’s wealth, conservative politicians,  and propaganda against liberals in the United States and throughout the world, with conservatism identifying itself as both liberal and moderate to deceive those who are unaware of the difference between liberals and conservatives.  Rupert Murdoch’s media has caused the most damage to liberal society.  Democracy doesn’t come through conservatism by any means.  What is happening and has happened is the fruit of conservatism without any liberalism; there has to be a balance between conservatism and liberalism, which no longer exists.

9/11 was the catalyst and Dick Cheney is in it up to his eyeballs.  Also, when you see a politician wearing a purple or lavender tie, it means they are a part of the Republican/Democrat Coalition known as the DLC, the Democratic Leadership Council that promotes the Project For the New American Century.  Joe Lieberman is also in it up to his eyeballs, as is Diane Feinstein and Harry Reid.

Conservatism or Conservatives make long term plans that they carefully wait to carry out, which is why no member representative of the liberal community should ever make an agreement with a Republican politician, unless they know the end, the beginning and all points in between.

Could it be possible that this stranglehold on America, turning her into Amerika was a step-by-step process starting many decades ago?

An economic coup has taken place in every major country with 9/11 being a catalyst for creating wealth out of war debt.

I think Cheney helped orchestrate the bringing of all the world’s empires under one roof… at least on paper he did.

The 70% Majority Common Population, the American Populace, are going to have to become real, and each and every person be about getting out of their genteel “credit land” delusions - the unreal illusion of wealth, where everything they have is actually owned by banks, where they are easily controlled as savant robots, if any kind of change can ever be expected; otherwise, the majority common population of the United States is going to assist in the self annihilation of the nation from corrupt, authoritative, conservative, aristocratic, financialized management for greedy self interests,  like that of Dick Cheney, that has continued relentlessly, noticeably starting with the Republicans’ Richard M. Nixon, and has grown more corrupt each year since, especially after the Conservative DLC wormed their way into leadership of the United States Congress in DC and throughout the states.  I cringe every time I see their leader Harold Ford perched on the Sunday political talk shows representing his 20% minority professional “academic capital” middle class as the complete common population.

Genteel Peasant Middle Class wanna be’s.

The Professional Middle Class and the Elites use attorneys against the 70% Majority Common Population because they know they haven’t money enough to defend themselves and the only rights one has is based strictly on what money one has, which is why families must work together for the protection of all family members.

I am not against attorneys in any way, because if it wasn’t for good honorable attorneys, many in my family would probably be serving time, but by the Grace of God in the Name of Jesus we were able to find good honorable attorneys that were not in the business of selling us out.  Trumped up charges by the DHS trying to take the children while at school, or outrageous traffic charges, or having a single pill separated from the medicine bottle in your pocket or purse, etc. which were not really hard to beat, just cost a lot of time, which is money, bond money, court costs and fees, of which there are a good supply, and of course attorney fees.  There appears to be a tyrannical plan to deliberately make as many of the younger Common Population, and if possible, their parents, felons, because felons can’t vote and private prisons are being used to turn the economy.

I am referring to class and cultural American citizen political representation of the 70% Majority Common Population’s class and culture in Congress and law and order in the United States——there is NONE.  The elite and Professional Middle Class ignore the 70% Majority Common Population, because they do not want them represented as anything other than children—like subjects, but it time for that to change, the Elite and the Professional Middle Class are cruel parents, and if they were all parents, by their own laws, would all be in prison for their cruelty; I say their own laws, because none of the 70% Majority Common Population have any say at all in the law.

Right Martha, I’m stating that America has been turned into Amerika and the Aristocrats and their dogs ( the empire’s countless offices of bureaucracy ) plus the lawyers / liars and all that feed off the teets of empire’s role in economy ( big pharma, military, etc ) are ‘stuck’ in the sticky predicament of being 2 to 20 paychecks away from broke only owning debt, that they must ‘obey’ their masters, handlers and mind their ‘duty’ and continue to pay tribute, duty and their ‘fare share’...

That new identity of the 70% you describe to be acknowledged, needs to be better and more specifically defined, don’t you think?  For it is comprised of new immigrants and lineage immigrants from centuries ago… and all in between NOT ‘rented’ by the systems of the Machine ( big corporations and industry owned by non US citizenry making up that 70% )...

So you have very few entrepreneurs / self-employed / small business owners NOT on government fed grants or contracts… which is a very small minority financially speaking considering big gov business… yet, as ONE it is a powerhouse!

Unfortunately, the populace NOT self employed but working for gov, big business and those feeding off them… they are TRAPPED unless they become independent… that is THE GREAT CHALLENGE, I think.

The other side, which owns the means to quickly communicate with the masses ( the media ), are not going to allow you the open mic unless you participate along their party lines.

I like your words “law and order” for that reminds me of Hoover’s statements in an interview from a documentary about JFK’s assassination and ‘Jedgar’s’ power and pull among the all facets of power in the country at that time.

Also, when you speak about representation, are you inferring to the approach as a ‘citizen’ of the USA, Inc? or referring to ‘sovereign’ living as a foreign entity on what once was the United States of America.

For your ‘representation’ in that public venue, with ‘officers’ of the ‘court’ working for the state / gov in order to sift the citizen of their value in return for the ‘benefits’ used by said citizen, is not in your favor, considering the commercial world we exist in.

You best know your history, your procedure and your position and how to petition for a redress of grievances.

Because the United States is a Melting Pot should in no way keep the Common Population of the United States from realizing their income levels and becoming aware that they are the American Common Populace Class and Culture of the United States that needs representation in law and order and the Congress of the United States.  Currently only the American Aristocracy and the Professional Middle Class are being represented and are the only ones making the laws to which the 70% Majority Common Population, the American Common Populace, are forced to adhere .  Liberal representatives like Dennis Kucinich are just kicked out and not even allowed media time to talk to the American Populace.

Class & Cultural Genocide of the Common Population in the United States is Understood By Dick Cheney

Page 1 of 2

Class and cultural genocide and framing of 70% of the American population, the American Populace, as “The Poor”, in favor of a Middle Class Singularity that the “so called” Poor are striving to obtain membership in is a false and disingenuous frame.

The American Populace striving to achieve a better life in societal circumstances where the Professional Middle Class is a part of the American Populace as a 90% Majority Population of the United States; where all 90% of the American Common Populace is politically represented in the making and enforcing of legislated law and order is in the best interest of the whole 90% Majority Common Population, rather than the situation that presently exists in the United States where the Middle Class is a 20% minority population represented politically by the Democratic Party in the making and enforcing of legislated law and order in the United States, and the remaining 70% Majority Common Population, the American Populace, are NOT REPRESENTED by a political party, are NOT REPRESENTED in the making and enforcing of legislated law and order in any part of the United States government and law and order and are left with “no choice” for political representation in the making and enforcing of legislated law and order in the United States other than “backlash” between the political agenda of the American Aristocracy, a 10% minority population of the United States, and the Professional Middle Class Singularity, a 20% minority population of the United States.

The 70% Majority Common Population of the United States, the American Populace, need to become aware that they as a class and culture are NOT POLITICALLY REPRESENTED by an institutionalized political party and are NOT, therefore, represented in the making and enforcing of legislated law and order in the United States; this is “Greek Democracy” where the American Populace are the “Helots”,  the Professional Middle Class are the “Perioci” and the American Aristocracy are the “Spartans”; democracy for the few at the expense of the many, maintained by the use of “personal metrics of morality” as a substitute to replace “cyclical historical metrics of culture”, to frame resultant tyranny and oppression as democracy.

American Democracy is based upon the Concept of Democracy for the FEW at the expense of the many and Causal Education for the FEW at the expense of the many.

Power, Control, and Benefit were originated and are maintained with American Democracy by way of the origin and maintenance of Class and Cultural Stratification that originates and maintains a Cultural Vacuum in the masses and perpetuates that Cultural Vacuum with “savant education”, so that “personal metrics of morality” supplant and replace “cyclically historical and causal metrics of culture”, and those being ruled over are trained to act and react with “personal metrics of morality as culture” as the mass equivalent of a cultural metric;————This is a very efficient and effective system of governance of a majority population by a minority population, but it is NOT DEMOCRACY in any shape, form, or fashion that is inclusive of the 70% Majority Common Population of the United States, the American Populace.

Class and Cultural genocide and the framing of the 70% Class and Culture of the American Common Population, the American Common Populace, as single individuals to be criminalized by the American Aristocracy’s Class and Cultural laws and the Professional Middle Class and Cultural laws must end.  It is time for a change from American Democracy for the few at the expense of the many to American Democracy for the many with the few paying their own way and making restitution for the Class and Cultural oppression, tyranny, and benefit received from 1776 to the present.

You are correct Martha A.,

The Amerikan has been individualized, the “family” as described from a cultural and class point of view now derived from a plethora of ethnic variety, has been outsourced to schools, social institutions and non-family members in order to bring in a class and culture known as “Amerikan” and a melting pot without distinction, but there are so many distinctions, and each one is interesting and can be appreciated for their contribution, whether historical or artistic or other.

It is our minds which need a new perspective, for our opinions have been formed by media ( radio, tv, movies, books, etc ).

This ‘cerebral society’ is a society within a society, yet I opine that all types and classes have their eyes on getting rich, successful and retired and ‘enjoying’ life ( which means spending lots of money consuming and experiencing life through the Babylon system ), and are duped into accepting the royal’s description of history and society and what is good or not- adhering to the empire.

And what has history shown us?: man as described through another man, but not autobiographical.

Class & Cultural Genocide of the Common Population in the United States is Understood By Dick Cheney

Page 2 of 2

The following http://www.thepeoplesvoice.org link about the man being evicted off his personal 36 acres of land is an example of one individual without class and cultural benefit of the 70% Majority Common American Populace, which is the entire 70% Majority Common Population of the United States.  It is time to wake up to the fact that the 70% Majority Common Population are a class and culture and claim that class and culture for representation in law and the Congress of the United States, as there are many individuals being taken advantage of because they are unaware of their own class and culture:

http://www.thepeoplesvoice.org/TPV3/Voices.php/2010/12/03/elderly-man-evicted-from-his-land-for-li

Without class and cultural life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness in the making and enforcing of legislated law and order that institutionalizes class and cultural freedom and justice for all, individual life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness with freedom and justice for all that is subject to the making and enforcing of legislated law and order of a class and culture, not their own, that is in power is meaningless and will serve no purpose other than to suppress, oppress, criminalize, control, and tyrannize competing classes and cultures, as individuals, as a means to an end of class and cultural benefit for the class and culture holding power over other unrepresented classes and cultures.

If class and culture is not represented within a society and that class and culture wants to be institutionally represented as a class and culture, that class and culture will separate from other classes and cultures and represent its own interests as a class and culture within its own class and culture, separate and apart from the competing class and cultural interests of competing classes and cultures; if the 70% American Populace are going to represent their own interests as a majority class and culture, rather than to continue to be held subjects individually as criminals by the legislated law and order of competing minority classes and cultures, this is the class and cultural process, and it requires class and cultural awareness to implement.

Individuals, not represented class and culturally, who contend or or pressed into contention with institutionalized class and cultural interests as subjects are criminals, and it is fitting that it should be so, if they will not separate as their own class and cultural entity and represent their own class and cultural interests, but continue to expect to be represented as subjects in classes and cultures that are not their own. 

Dick Cheney understands that the 70% Majority Common Population do not understand themselves to be the class and culture that they are and therefore feels safe to do whatever he chooses, because power comes with awareness and understanding of ones class and culture and Cheney is fairly certain the populace will continue to sit like children for the aristocrats and professionals to lead them around like children.

Cheney will NOT be reprimanded by U.S. law, for he is immune under the old Roman fraternal order.

Yet, a militia ( group of rightfully armed citizens ) could arrest him.  And he could be held in the new public courts held out in public, judge AND jury being regular folks, not hired lackeys and shills of the empire.
