..there seems to me like there is substantially larger difference between the former CEO of Halliburton being part (and by that I mean second in command) of the same administration that gave Halliburton billion dollar contracts...
And a guy who is :
Deputy health and human services secretary nominee
On another note though :
.....what exactly is a : Deputy Health and Human Services Secretary?
Comparing an elected figure, the Vice President, to appointed figures, Seceretary's and others, is kind of apples to oranges.
There's definitely lobbyists in Bush's camp that you could've used to use an honest comparison. Instead, you choose Dick Cheney whose not a good example because its a completely different TYPE of position. This makes me wonder why you didn't go for an actual legitimate analogy. And, even if you had...so what? Why is it okay for people to have no problem with Obama doing something (having lobbyists AND seemingly purposefully breaking a campaign promise and/or lieing) that they had a problem with Bush doing it?
