You know something else that will blow your socks off?
I read an article the other day saying that water was wet!
This is a non-story. I don't see it as any different from someone who HIV eliminated investing in medical companies doing research in that field. Or someone who cares about children starving in Africa investing in companies researching in crops that are better suited to grow there.
I mean, seriously, the company were looking for an investment and he has money to invest. And you object to this why? You filthy commie

Cheney didn't endorse petrochemical ideals before he was part of Halliburton, to my knowledge.
