Cheney is involved in everything, from way back, and it is all about privatizing everything, even the intel. His connections to McConnell, Zakheim, et al and Booz Allen Hamilton:

Hope Negroponte's wearing his flak jacket... Wait, no, no I don't.

read the links above for more...he pushed Negroponte out

There is so much more to learn about Booz Allen Hamilton and the connections between the principals and events of 9/11 and beyond. Key words: Project Trailblazer, Project Home Run, TIA, Mitre and Flight Termination System.

Today, the ties between intelligence agencies and the private sector are so close, it’s sometimes hard to tell the difference. Joan Dempsey, a former CIA deputy director, recently -- and approvingly -- referred to consulting firm Booz Allen as “the shadow intelligence community.” Three of Booz Allen’s current and former vice presidents previously served as intelligence agency directors, including James Woolsey, who headed the CIA during the Clinton administration. Connections with the private sector are especially close at the NSA, where outsourcing has grown rapidly. Former NSA director William Studeman is now a vice president of Northrop Grumman, and Barbara McNamara, a former deputy director, is on the board of CACI. After leaving government, these officials keep their high-level security clearances, which makes them extremely valuable to their new employers. “You can’t do anybusiness without having the clearances,” says John Pike of GlobalSecurity.org, a Virginia- based think tank. “How else would you know about the contracts?”
