The only person that has ever seen me riled up is the guy a ran over after he shot me in the leg, I was quite riled up.
Anyway, I guess the humor of political cartoons is WAYYYY over your head. You see, it's kind of like gargoyles. They were originally made ugly by those that created them in mocking the ones that made them make them. It was their way of laughing at the man.
See, this is funny...
Not funny...
If you really want to see truely funny political commentary in the form of cartoons, read Doonesbury, as I suggested earlier, or even Bloom County

Yeah, it's no big deal to me.
I just know that Halliburton just happened to be the top company for putting out oilwell fires, so logically they would be the ones chosen to put out fires in Iraq- along with a lot of the other jobs that they were given. I'm sure they would have gotten the contracts whether or not Dick-head was VP... but since he is the Vice Presidential Dick, everyone has to make a huge deal about it.
Oh well. I'm not a manager there anymore- I don't care.

Conflict of interest?

So because he used to run the company, he can't send the business that way even though he has no legal ties to it anymore? Even if the company is the best choice for the job? Like I said, everyone wants to make a big deal about it just because he used to at the top of the command ladder there.

Well, I'm sure that there are- but then you're treading the fine line between choosing the best company for the job and having people call "conflict of interest" on you, or picking someone that's second rate and not getting the most for your money. Even if there are financial ties, as long as you prove that a company is the best choice for the job based on solid decision criteria when compared to other companies, you're fine. That's not conflict of interest.

Maybe not physical ties, but political backsratching has been going on as long as politics, and isn't going to stop.
