Compare this piece to the one by New York Times referenced by Horton. NYT is satisfied to say that questions remain. Horton talks about some of those questions and their significance. We learn here that the Bush/Cheney Justice Department negotiated the settlement despite the fact that Cheney was CEO of Halliburton during the time of the Nigerian bribes. How did NYT miss that detail?

Some of us will not live long enough to learn the whole story of Cheney's crimes but surely, piece by piece, the truth will surface eventually.
