haliburton is at the top, stock doing very well this time of year. is it worth it to put fresh money -- >> haliburton is selling at a chief valuation, which of course is what we want to invest in. they are a leader in pumping, solid demand for the services in the next three or four years. i think it closed today about $62 a share. this year will earn about $4 a share, but within the next few years that can be 657. if we put a 13 or 14% number on it, there is strong growth in the company. >> you like their stuff, you like their stock, apple. tell me this, though, barbara, i don't want you to give me the case for apple, but tell me, should i buy it before the split or after? >> i would buy it now, yesterday the stock was up 8% on two and a half times the normal trading value and so i think you're seeing a reset. and then today, it held onto all of that and still closed a little bit. very cheap stock. >>> do you have a target price on apple? >> i, you know, i think that once we get -- it is selling about 12 times earnings, nine times without the cash. w

paul accused cheney of pushing iraq's war because of his connection with the oil equipment company haliburton. in other words, for personal financial gain. the war runs deeper than this on the republican side. rand paul like his father ron thinks the people who got us into the iraq war violated the very nature of their oaths to use the u.s. military power only for the defense of this country. they believe that war was bought for ideological reasons, shrouded in this dishonest claim that iraq had nuclear weapons capable of hitting the u.s. cheney gets more real with each new national opinion poll. his own republican party might denounce him in history by selecting a presidential candidate who openly and starkly turns the party against the bush-cheney record on iraq, one that many now see as the cheney record, given w's far greater passion for oil painting these days than for any more oil warfare. as he stands at his easel, w wouldn't be less interested in defending what was done in iraq, including the 106,000 people killed in that misconceived freedom crusade. joining me tonight is david corn,

that's what they used to say when dick cheney was vice president because of his own energy running haliburton. but they still say that. even now after six years, going on six years of the obama administration, there is no energy strategy. >> there is none. what we need right now is an energy strategy that takes into account the realities of today's report, which says we need to keep the temperature increase below a one more degree rise from today basically or two degree centigrade rise compared to the preindustrial period. and in order to do that, that means we can't be emitting carbon dioxide at the rate we are doing and therefore all of the major economies of the world need to change course. if our government said, okay how can this be done. and if china and european union and others said how can this be done, we actually realized there are a lot of ways that this can be done but we need a strategy. that would give some hope i think to the american people. >> i was struck by your previous guest, when he was talking about the sort of the marketplace with robotics in the u.s. right now is lea
