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."

I had heard that they had, but you are probably right on that one. That scandal is way too damaging for both political parties.

"Obviously, it can be done for non-political crimes done during office, but I note some language that would seem to make possible impeachment for felonies, and possibly even misdemeanors committed prior to the office being obtained."

Thank-you. I was pretty sure that a public official could be impeached for crimes committed prior to their election to current public office.

Well, we were having some pretty good Constitutional debate before.

[FreedominJesusChrist]

You are correct. Thanks for your input, we might not always agree, but it is always welcome.

Don't forget Da Watch Watch:

We already obtained the sound legal advice of One Particular, plus I don't want to drag my good Prof. into this, and if I gave his name, you guys would know what school I attend, so that won't happen.

[FreedominJesusChrist]

Thanks for coming onto this thread and adding your thoughtful input.

Good morning.... Have you talked to your buds over at the watch to see when the next major announcement is forthcoming? Maybe early next week, the week after, or today? You do have friends over there don't you?

[FreedominJesusChrist]

Yeah? Well why don't you walk over to Walden Pond and spend a year or so there?

[FreedominJesusChrist]

Now, please tell me goldi. Isn't it possible for a civil lawsuit to have criminal elements involved? There seems to be some people here who don't agree.

[FreedominJesusChrist]

Good morning back to you, deport.

"Don't forget Da Watch Watch:"

Amelia, when did you start using all of that ghetto fabulous language?

[deport]

So you have no friends over at the watch? Now which is it?

"Drawing" is the key word from the definition. I do not draw any cartoons. However, you do realize that you are acknowledging that what I do is "humorous" don't you?

Cartoon Boy is fine however, after the insane post above, one would think you would prefer calling me Kiddie Porn Boy instead...

[deport]

you guys would know what school I attend,

A guess.. .. Concordia?

What's your buds over at the watch saying about the next big announcement.? Come on Rebeckie, let us in on the gossip.......

[Amelia]

Are you two going to turn the thread back into another personal insult thing, or would either of you like to address the point of my "insane post" above? You seem to have missed it, so I'll restate it:

Do you think it's okay to trash someone else's reputation and make them pay big lawyer fees when there's no evidence against them?
