Dick Cheney on D.C. Madam's List?

So says one rumor.

Just came in from Coffee at the Caribou Coffee at 16th and L in DC.

Ran into one of my old cronies.

DC Madam talk is all the conversation in DC.

Brace Yourself.

I was just told Dick Cheney, while CEO of Halliburton, used her services regularly, they are trying to spin up a message to explain that members of his staff, in his offices, used this service to entertain foreign clients.

Apparently several of his ex-staff at Halliburton are already being besieged by calls.

Make of it what you will. I think I would be happier knowing the Dick can dance like a John.

I would also like to make this note, as an Executive who has been trained in how to stay within the law of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.

I was specifically instructed by our corporate lawyers never to pay for such services of clients, it is always found to be a violation of the FCPA.

Does this mean, the WH spin, which we will see coming out in the Next 24 hours will be:

Dick Cheney did not use an Escort Service...instead he committed violations of the FCPA and ordered others to do so?
Interesting Times.
Interesting times indeed.
