    I see nothing intrinsically wrong with our VP meeting with any group of industry Executives, even those from the massive, profit-gouging oil behemoths.

    But why deny that the meeting occurred (and note that this was before our Iraq invasion and war) - and why go to some lengths to deny environmentalists and others access to the meeting and the records afterwards?

    I am not a consipracy theory buff, but hmmmm ....... the plot thickens, no?

    "A White House document shows that executives from big oil companies met with Vice President Cheney's energy task force in 2001 -- something long suspected by environmentalists but denied as recently as last week by industry officials testifying before Congress."
