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."

Fair enough. If it's mandatory (jail) then why do we have to execute voluntary withholding forms (W-4)?

Damn you always get me when I am brain dead but I will give it a shot. The W4 is to calculate your "dependent or implied dependent" deductions. In other words you may have only yourself as a deduction but your other "implied dependents" can be as many as 4 or 5. That means that your paycheck tax deductions are greatly reduced and then when you "voluntarily" file your return your tax withholding balances with the deductions you have claimed on your W4. For example I had 4 kids a wife and myself as flesh in blood dependents but for years I carried 11 dependents on my W4 based on interest write-offs and business expenses I incurred during the year. My actual withholding was almost 0 but I never got a refund either. The upside is that I kept my money and the downside was that I sometimes had to pay at the end of the year.

Look, nopardons insulted me. If nopardons will apologize for insulting me than I'll forget it. I was trying to provide some sources straight out of the IRS manual that perhaps would be informative. Instead, what do I get...personal attacks. There's that old saying,"treat others the way you'd want to be treated". I may not agree with what some of these posters state but I do not resort to personal insults.

Not that I am a fan of Rendall's .. but here is clip of News of Larry at work ..

"GO AHEAD AND TRY TO NOT PAY YOUR ONCOME TAX !"

Just what is an "oncome" tax?

And by the way, your posts make absolutely no sense, especially with all the needless commas, capitalization, bolded letters, slang terms, and incoherent thought process.

One would think you are drunk and trying to post.

How do you expect goldi to understand anything you are saying, when you can't even form a coherent sentence?

" If you want to know just how and why I know so much about the Market, FREEPmail me, dear FRiend. :-)"

Good, because no one else here cares two hoots what your husband does for a living.

And by the way, a smiley face is not a period.

As I've said before, and as these posts of yours illustrate, you come across as a very prissy, snitty little girl. Sometimes it's better to just say nothing about a post you don't like, rather than to make such silly, pointless comments so that you can (temporarily) have the last word. --oops-- I forgot, you already know everything.

Yep sounds just like one of your buds that is gone..... LOL

Let the audits begin
No one is above the law...... or so it's claimed

[deport]

The girl can't help it, don'tcha see... must be something in the water.....

[Carolinamom]

And by the way, a smilely face is not a period.

Clara, her remark above to nopardons is not just snippy...it is incorrect. She needs her specs, for I see periods at the ends of all of nopardons' sentences. 'Sorry to make such a fuss about such a petty thing, but her tone and mien is not very nice, especially when considering her screen name.

Good grief...these poor people don't have a prayer.

I have never heard such disjointed questioning by a lawyer.

If Larry had a point to make in that laughable display of his talents, he failed to make it.

[Clara Lou]

I know, it's futile. I keep forgetting the girl cain't hep it.

[Clara Lou]

especially when considering her screen name
I have brought that very point to her attention. Obviously, that was futile too.

You have three hours to depose a witness and you ask questions about JFK's assassination and Monica Lewinsky? Sheesh! Larry Klayman is guided by his own pleasure and self-aggrandizement. He is not governed by the thought of how a deposition or evidence will appear to a jury, because 1) he has never been in front of a jury and so he doesn't know and 2) he never intends to be before a jury and so he doesn't care.

It would appear that the Adamses are in the rare category of JW's clients with a good case. But no case has much of a chance if you are represented by JW.

So are you the newest member of the knitting circle here? Or should be call it the wanna-be matriarchy of Freerepublic?

[terilyn]

You assume a lot.

You assume all here that don't have a shred of respect for Larry are female.

[terilyn]

Wasn't that about the most pathetic questioning you've ever heard?

These people do appear to have a legitimate case. Too bad Larry's made hash of it.

I think Larry could use some of those meds.

The majority of regulars on these threads are, save deport and RedBlooded.

Closing in...

[terilyn]

Really....

One more thing you're wrong about....
