12:57PM Halliburton responds to Judicial Watch lawsuit (HAL) by Michael Baron Halliburton (HAL) is off 30 cents, or 2.1 percent, to $13.82, in midday action. The company is out with a press release responding to a lawsuit filed by Judicial Watch, a Washington, D.C.-based legal watchdog group. The suit alleges fraudulent accounting practices at Halliburton took place during the period when current vice president Dick Cheney served as its chairman and CEO. Halliburton called the claims in the suit, "untrue, unsupported, and unfounded." The company continued: "We are working diligently with the SEC to resolve its questions regarding the company's accounting procedures. Halliburton has always followed and will continue to follow guidelines established by the SEC and GAAP, General Accepted Accounting Principles."

Sure, she does what she wants and shows her bullying, nasty side on these JW threads. I never liked bullies. I took it from them during childhood and then I punched them in the nose and learned that that's what it takes sometimes.

I don't enjoy doing it but I do it.

"Ann Coulter has played "kissy face" with Larry Klayman because Klayman can pay HUGE amounts of dollars to her. With $26,000,000 +++++ in revenues, JW is well able to influence Coulter's opinions, or so it seems."

You have absolutely no factual basis for this statement. This is the kind of slander I am talking about. Not only are you accusing Judicial Watch of bribery, you are also attacking the integrity of Ann Coulter, insinuating that she would be willing to take bribes from Judicial Watch, which would never occur.

Your utter hatred for this organization seems to cloud your ability to distinguish fact from fantasy.

It implies they are going above and beyond normal procedures in their accounting practices. But it is up to the auditors to have accuracy; the company hiring the auditors is not going to audit them! If you hired an accountant, would you hire another accountant to check them?

The staff possesses . . ."

Perhaps the Judicial Watch staff is possessed.

And your utter ignorance of JW and many other topics on FR is amazing. Why anyone even spends time trying to save you is beyond me. You have NO idea WHO you are talking to, WHAT folks KNOW or DO for employment, or their CONTACTS.

When you are told to FLEE JW, it is GOOD advice.

Cheney was praising their consulting advice. If AA was cooking the books illegally, I doubt Cheney would give them a public kudos. Please try to say something that has some versimilitude. It might allow you to actually cut deeper than the merely the top layer of the epidermis.

If Fred deserves to be committed would you defend him?

Yes or no?

True or false?

Why haven't you answered the question yet?

Then you should depart this thread too, and not waste your valuable time.

No, I would NOT defend him if he deserves to be impeached; but there is nothing even close to that being published anywhere, except out of Larry Klayman's mouth.

A crook is a crook, be it Bill Clinton or George Bush or Dick Cheney. I have been a Republican all my life, but I was the very FIRST person to say Richard Nixon should have been impeached.

See, I'm not a coward and I'm not afraid to say what I think.

Slander? You DARE to use the word "slander" after what you said on this forum about David Keene?

I'm calling you a liar without integrity, because I know you'd defend him to the bitter end.

Of course, that is just my opinion.

How do you like the taste of your own medicine?

Well, it won't be the first time you've been wrong.

And I still answered the question, unlike others on this thread.

FiJC said:

It takes integrity to not slander someone's name before all the evidence has come out in court.

Halliburton called the claims in [Klayman’s] suit, "untrue, unsupported, and unfounded." Of course, they haven’t come to court.

Howlin responded:

I just HAVE to ask you this one last thing: in light of the things that Klayman has been saying these last few days, are you admitting that Larry Klayman has no integrity?

FiJC then said:

Larry Klayman and the staff of Judicial Watch have always possessed the virtue of integrity in my eyes.

So Howlin says:

Well, since you agree with Larry's remarks and think they're virtuous, those of us who KNOW better can judge you as lacking integrity.

And Fred Mertz lashes out at Howlin with:

You need to mount your broom and fly away for a bit. I'm using my self control not to tell you what I really think of your assinine statement.

Actually, I believe you should hit the abuse button on yourself again.

I think everyone can judge just who is being assinine[sic].
