Dick Cheney is Being Charged for Bribery by the Nigerian Government

Earlier this month, the Nigeria's Economic and Financial Crimes Commission charged Dick Cheney and nine others associated with Halliburton with "conspiracy and distribution of gratification to public officials," according to CNN International. In other words, they allegedly tried to bribe Nigerian officials.

Now, the charges may be dropped based on if an agreement is reached with Halliburton to pay $250 million in fines.

Of course, these allegations are considered a stunt by the Nigerian government since elections are in April. But, then again, Halliburton had pleaded guilty to similar charges in the United States last year.

Regardless of if the Nigerian government seized the opportunity to "act" as if they are cleaning up corruption or not, Halliburton had this coming to them. Check out the whole story and let me know what you think of this hot mess.

What I found most shocking was not that Cheney was being accused of bribery, but more so the picture of how he looks. He is so slim! This was supposedly caused by a hospital summer stay, but I don't know about all that...
