Halliburton Responds to Larry Klayman's Supersillyous Suit(My Title)
CBS Market Watch "Big Charts" Web Site ^ | 7/10/2002 | MarketWatch.com

Posted on 07/10/2002 11:04:03 AM PDT by SierraWasp

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."

Made a little visit to the JW site this evening. I still found this tidbit:

A CNN poll, featured on the Internet web site of Lou Dobbs, the anchor and managing editor of “Lou Dobb’s Moneyline” – the prestigious and authoritative financial and business news program – revealed that 95% of the respondents answered “Yes” to the question, “Should Vice President Dick Cheney answer questions about accounting at Halliburton?” A similar poll on the Judicial Watch web site (www.JudicialWatch.org) shows 83% of respondents answering “Yes” to the question, “Should Vice president Cheney be required to answer accounting questions about Halliburton?” Interestingly, both the “Moneyline” and Judicial Watch web sites are likely frequented by large numbers of economic and social conservatives. This proves that conservatives are as concerned as liberals about Cheney’s alleged involvement in stock fraud.

And the actual poll results (it's closed now, no more voting):

Judicial Watch Poll Center

Results

Should Vice President Dick Cheney be required to answer accounting questions about Halliburton? (3880 votes)
Yes
1645 (42%)
No
2234 (57%)

Inspires real trust in Larry's integrity, huh?

Most likely because people like you were "Freeping" the poll.

I noticed this happening for the past few months.

Judicial Watch supporters believe in the integrity of Larry Klayman and the diligent staff there. I believe that they are also aware that people on this website are purposefully trying to make their poll look bad.

"People like you..."

Could you explain to me why those of us who disagree with the Klayman world view should not vote in this poll? Thank you.

You can vote in these polls, but I just hope that the people at JW realize this when they view the results.

Sorry to disappoint you Becky, but the site only allows you to "casted" your vote once. I tried to go back in later to view the results and it wouldn't even let me do that without scolding me that I had already "casted" my vote.

You know, I asked a simple question. Despite your claim to support the President, you accuse me of somehow wanting to identify "true" Bush supporters, and also the reference to Nazi armbands did not go unnoticed.

Please flag me when the President does something you agree with. I must confess that with all of your photo caption work over the last few months and your disagreement on most issues the President has taken a stand on, I got the impression that you didn't like anything that he did. I would be happy to admit my error, so just point me to those threads in which you supported something the President did.

Thank you.

Well, if you are having problems at the website, then just e-mail the webmaster and let him know.

I support President Bush. That being said, I won't vote for him in 2004.

So the fact that we disagree with King Larry means that our vote should not count or should count less, or perhaps Larry could just identify all people from Free Republic who disagree with him and ask that a block be placed on all of our computers so we are not allowed to have an opinion?

I think there is a job opening for you down in Broward County, voting, er counting ballots.

You have just outdone yourself.

Dear FJIC:

Support = Vote.

If you won't vote for him, than you don't support him. You can't have it both ways.

Well, I voted for him in 2000 and regret my vote to a certain extent. I support him now, especially in the war against terror. But I probably will go 3rd party in 2004.

So Larry puts out a press release stating that his JW poll shows 83% voted yes, when his poll clearly shows that 42% voted yes.

Bookmarking for proof that Larry is a liar.

Oh, and forwarding with your permission to every single show on Fox News. They aren't afraid to tell the truth.

I've been doing with with an article a day on Larry/JW and every day Brit has a comment on it.

I never said that, you can vote if you want to. The poll just is not accurate because of the number of "Freeps".

If you'll notice on the thread last night, I was one of the first from here to get to the poll - provided the link for the others. The NOs were winning then.

And I'll admit I tried to vote twice; it won't let you do that.

So only Judicial Watch supporters should be allowed to vote in this poll so Larry looks good?

Believe me, that's the only way it could happen.
