Cheney sold his interest in Halliburton when he joined became the Vice-Presidential candidate in 2000.
Halliburton is THE company that can do the sort of stuff that's involved in fixing Iraq. Every other company is an also-ran.

As for no-bid contracts, Haliburton had a "pre-existing" contract from Clintons Bosnia mess. There was no bid because they already had the contract.
Cheney is still drawing severance and bonus' from his time in Haliburton before he becamse VP. No apparent wrong doing. At least he wasn't still accepting campaign cash from his business cronies, unlike Gore.
