What does that have to do with Cheney making this so called profit from the oil co. a It was a closed door meeting with all parties attending listed for public information. The President only has to disclose who attened the meeting and not the substance when these meetings go on. If they had to disclose everything that was discussed at the white house how could they get any thing done. The Dems. made a big issue of this knowing that the Pres. would fight them on the issue as if they gave them the information then they would have set a presidence (spelling). Then the Dems would use this to make them disclose other meetings and nothing would ever get done. This is not new and was practiced by all presidents so they could get stuff done. The Dems. then by making this an issue could then point their finger and say see they are with big oil and they are hiding this info from us. I guess it worked by post.
