Who you gonna call? Lie busters!
Okie dokie fellow proud liberals, I have a problem. I cannot make my sister in law believe Cheney owns 60% of the stock of Halliburton. She won't believe it unless I can show her a reference in print, in a big name newspaper, she only believes newspapers, god knows why, when we all should know whe can't belive anybody. Least of all, Cheney. Can anyone help my find a newspaper source to prove Cheney's ownership of Halliburton stock? I mean, its bad enough Diebold elected this guy, at least, I don't want my sister in law to be forevermore ignorant of his treasons. Thanks for any help you can offer!

4. that's because
Cheney DOESN'T own 60% of Halliburton stock. I'd guess he doesn't own 1% of it.

5. You're right ... you DO have a problem
You made an unsubstantiated claim (Cheney owns 60% of Halliburton stock) and then wanted us to back you up with your sister?

Dude ... do some fact checking first before you take a position, otherwise you look like a moran.
