Report Weakens Cheney Denial: "A report by the Congressional Research Service undermines Vice President Dick Cheney (news - web sites)'s denial of a continuing relationship with Halliburton Co., the energy company he once led, Sen. Frank Lautenberg said Thursday. The report says a public official's unexercised stock options and deferred salary fall within the definition of 'retained ties' to his former company.
Cheney said Sunday on NBC's 'Meet the Press' that since becoming vice president, 'I've severed all my ties with the company, gotten rid of all my financial interest. I have no financial interest in Halliburton of any kind and haven't had, now, for over three years.' "
