You are correct. Perry was necessarily involved with the Ukraine’s gas production as part of his job. Asking the President to ask for investigation into corruption involving Ukrainian companies could also be part of Perry’s job, and certainly wouldn’t constitute any wrong doing on either Perry’s or the President’s part, IMHO...

Look at Post 15 and look particularly at the date.

Here's a real conspiracy theory. A few years back Texas based Valero Oil split off their transportation division into a separate corporation and went into a worldwide "deepwater terminal" project. They're getting ready to go into production and guess who's going to be their "consultant".

That's almost as good as: Slant/directional drilling that makes fracking possible was no technological innovation but years of experience from the "good ol' boys" out in West Texas stealing oil from each other.
