1. These are the kind of criminals he is comfortable around. He
has plenty of friends who have done similair crimes. Only they aren't having to pay back those they stole from. Like the employees of their company or the entire state of California. Heck let's face it. He has done this himself, and look what he became!

2. A true Republican role model
She was sentenced to three years in prison for having embezzled more than $300,000 from the company, according to court and prison records.

Lie, cheat and steal your way ahead. Perhaps he could find her an executive position at Halliburton. Interesting that the more money you steal, the shorter your sentence.

4. 300K is not big-time enough -
for an executive position at Haliburton. She will have to settle for an entry level position.
