Great Country Part III
Ethical behavior???
*******Start******** US Vice-President Dick Cheney is to be sued by an anti-corruption pressure group for alleged fraudulent accounting practices. The group, Judicial Watch, claims Mr Cheney deceived investors while he was a director of the oil company Halliburton in the 1990s. In a case being filed in Dallas, Texas, Mr Cheney is alleged to have engaged in practices which led to the overvaluation of the company's shares. To look the other way for the vice-president would be to set a precedent that the Washington elite are above the law Larry Klayman, Judicial Watch chairman The move comes only a day after President Bush tried to distance himself from corporate fraud, proposing tougher penalties in an effort to restore confidence after the recent business scandals that have shaken the US. Judicial Watch is also suing for access to records of Mr Cheney's energy task force that drew up the Bush administration's energy policy last year. "To look the other way for the vice-president would be to set a precedent that the Washington elite are above the law," said Larry Klayman, chairman at Judicial Watch. But Halliburton spokeswoman Wendy Hall said, "We don't believe the case has any merit." Further details of the lawsuit are likely to emerge during a news conference in Miami on Wednesday at 9am local time (1300 GMT

And your point is....? Anybody with the filing fee can file suit against anybody else, which doesn't prove anything. Cheney divested himself of the shares during the campaign, so as to avoid charges of conflict of interest. Now the liberal whiners are complaining that he profited by this sale; let's see, is this still capitalism at work, or not? Klayman is getting some bad info, and time will prove that he's wasting his time and the organization's money. Whoever titled them an "anti-corruption pressure group"?
