Ex-Halliburton Worker Calls for Probe

All Associated Press NewsDALLAS (AP) - A former Halliburton Co. employee wants Congress to investigate what he claims are the company's efforts to cover up violations of corruption laws and to mislead investigators.

David A. Smith, who worked for Halliburton's Kellogg, Brown & Root unit, said that he received e-mails from a company attorney on how to handle federal investigations, but those notes were intended for David R. Smith, a vice president with Halliburton's tax group.

The e-mails, he said, focused on how the Houston oil field services conglomerate would defend itself against a federal review of bribery and corruption charges connected to Halliburton's natural gas operations in Nigeria.

David A. Smith, who says he owns a single share of company's common stock, filed a statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission Thursday, saying David R. Smith "was being asked to weigh in on how to explain away the source of the bribes paid to Nigerian officials."

2. You know what sucks about

3. How are they these days?

still fighting the good fight

sadly, because of the TS'ing - the DU misses out on a lot of new info an updates, except when there's an article/story in the M$M - but the M$M stories are lacking in indepth or behind the scenes details.

And then there's the missed opportunity for DUers to ask questions. It's a shame CGA and Ides were TS'd beause of the flying-monkey brigades (members of which been subsequently TS'd). That avenue of info/news has been cut-off. DU's loss - TPPG's gain (http://www.progressivesplayground.com)
