Well then. I think we can safely put the final nail in the coffin of the idea that Judicial Watch may still be holding onto its Republican attack machine roots:
Sued for Accounting Fraud
A watchdog group on Wednesday sued Vice President Dick Cheney and Halliburton Co., the oil services company he ran for five years, based on allegations of accounting fraud.
Washington-based Judicial Watch filed a shareholder lawsuit against Cheney and Halliburton, alleging that the accounting fraud led to shareholder losses. The lawsuit claims Halliburton overstated revenues by $445 million from 1999 through the end of 2001.
They really don’t like Cheney much, do they?
Now everybody go dust off their pro- and anti- executive privilege arguments, ’cause here we go again.
Oh, and this sure doesn’t help much either. Somebody sure is having a bad news cycle…
