Obama purchased $5,000 in shares for AVI, which was developing a drug to treat avian flu. Two weeks after buying the stock, Obama pushed for more federal funding to fight the disease, but company officials said they never talked to Obama about his work in the area. Cheney completely divests himself of all interests in Haliburton prior to becoming a candidate for office, but every action he or the government takes is assumed buy the MSM to be a payoff to his "buddies." Obama has a genuine conflict of interest here. This is the reason government officials are supposed to place all investments into a blind trust. Anyone want to take bets as to whether the MSM actually pursues this story?

Soros bought $67mm worth of Haliburton last week. Nothing to see here...
