So Dems, I listened to all kinds of Halliburton conspiracies but was there ever anything as obvious as THIS?????? Where are the journalists now????????????
You do know that the S&P is a business, right? And that they can put whomever they want at the helm?

The Haliburton "conspiracies" were due to direct ties between the VP and major, no-bid contracts being handed over to them.

You're really grasping at straws when it comes to making any correlation here. How does a bank that received TARP money (which was requested by and signed into law by Bush) compare to Haliburton receiving no-bid contracts (also under Bush)?

There are much better, and obvious, examples of the Obama administration putting corporate big wigs into political roles.
