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."
Did you see the thread about what he said about the book of Mormon?
Even so, in our federal court system, we have a thing called the criminal grand jury to investigate corruption of such white collar crime as this.
I'm sorry but I don't understand what you mean by that statement. I support JW and believe in what they stand for alone. That...No one is above the Law.
And as far as investors suing, because they've lost money, it's only lately, that spoiled, stupid people who think that the Market goes just one way ... UP ... think that they have the right " to sue re a Stock Market loss.
Spoiled stupid people? This is an issue of fudiciary trust that those inside this scandal know are in trouble. They had a fudiciary duty to disclose of certain information to the investors. And I hope those investors sue that Halliburton corporation until they scream. Better yet, maybe put some of those while collar professionals behind bars for fraud, enbezzlement, SEC violations, etc.
As I understand it, Twain had two major gripes with Cooper. One was his literary style, which is definitely pre-modern. The other was that Cooper clearly felt that individual American Indians were capable of high moral qualities. As an American who lived near the frontier, Twain did not consider Amerindians to be truly human.
Nope, the suckers are those who fail to do nothing about the cabal of white collar crime taking place in our government offices and leadership.
Your utter lack of knowledge, about the STock Market ( or , evidently, any other of the markets ) is palable ! No one " sued " after the Crash of '29, or the most recent one, in '87. No one sued Joe Kennedy, who, FYI, made the '29 one, much worse and actually ruined what was about to become an uptick, since he and jis pals were shorting the Market.
You'll find it better, dear, to NOT talk about things that you don't know about or understand. From your posts, I bet you think that that woman, who spilled hot coffee in her lap and sued, was doing a great thing. Sheeeeeeeeeeeesh !
That wasn't the point. The point was
Can't you see that?
The facts speak for themselves in the Complaint and perhaps we will see this through discovery.
I doubt it. Most of the "facts" have already been debunked on this thread and others by people who have a clue about corporate accounting.
...I don't Larry would be wasting his time going after a government official if something had not gone wrong with the books leaving investors pissed off for their loss of investments to be lost due to a hushed up scandal that probably smells from the higher ups.
Here's a clue: one of the investors Larry is suing on behalf of MADE money.
Here's another clue: One of Larry's charges is that the accounting change wasn't disclosed, when it clearly was, in the annual report.
Third clue: Larry is suing BECAUSE Dick Cheney is involved - no other reason - otherwise he'd be suing on behalf of shareholders of Global Crossing, Enron, or the other companies where shareholders DID lose money because of malfeasance.
I support JW and believe in what they stand for alone. That...No one is above the Law.
No one? Not even Judicial Watch? Because there's this certain matter of an IRS audit....
They had a fudiciary duty to disclose of certain information to the investors.
Very obvious that the only thing you've read about this has been Larry's press releases. And we've already proved Larry lies in his press releases.
Whether they are judges, the President or V. President of the U.S., bankers, and congressmembers, still I believe that noone is above the law! Guess that makes me a sucker, huh?
I take it you do believe that Judicial Watch should immediately comply with the IRS audit then, since NO ONE - not even Judicial Watch - is above the law?
Nope, the suckers are those who fail to do nothing about the cabal of white collar crime taking place in our government offices and leadership.
Suckers might also be those who continue to believe every word that proceeds out of the mouth of Larry Klayman.
Suckers might be those who continue to send him money to "fight corruption" even though less than 20% of the money he receives goes for legal expenses and he so far hasn't won any of the many cases he's filed (except maybe the one against his mother?)
By the way, when you send money to Larry, does he give you a financial statement so that you can see what you've gotten for your investment? Or does he just send a letter asking for even more money?
