Larry isn't an accountant, he is a DAMN lawyer for God's sake. Give the boy a break. Of course he doesn't know what he is talking about in this field. I'm the only lawyer I know that is reasonably facile with accounting, and that is due to certain educational detours I took.

Larry is a lawyer? I thought he worked for Jesse Jackson.

You could at least have expected him to get some advice from an accountant right? He could at leats keep his statements consistent as to what types of contracts he is "investigating" right? He first states that Halliburton’s problems were with disputed over runs on "fixed price" contracts and then states on CNN that the problem centers on "cost plus" contracts, which btw became as scarce as Larry Klayman's integrity in the early 80's in the EPC industry.

Think YOU could explain this to Beckie?
