The GOP should be lining up for a press conference over this report, right? We're talking about the misuse of $125+ billion, and the theft of over $50 billion, in a country we destroyed but have failed to help rebuild. Of course it probably wouldn't reflect well on the GOP or our military if reports about pallets of taxpayer's hundred dollar bills being pocketed $60,000 at a time by corrupt US officials and Republican cronies got out.

The war in Iraq is certainly the biggest fraud in recent US history. Now we have evidence it was also the biggest financial fraud as well.

What we're talking about is an article that deals primarily in smoke and lies that suckered you right in because it told you precisely what you want to hear so you accepted it without question.

First of all, it's impossible to misuse $125 billion in Iraq because Congress hasn't provided anywhere near that amount of funding for the reconstruction of Iraq. Thus far we've spent @ 50 billion on reconstruction in Iraq (some of which got diverted to security prior to 2008) and there's plenty to show for it, for those who bother to actually look at the details instead of reading and running with a shoddy article from the Independent, possibly Britain's bizarro version of Fox News in print.

Second of all, the article is full of shit about construction cranes in Baghdad. What about the Qudas power plant that's nearing completion? How about the Farabi and Jamilia substation in Sadr city? What about all the water projects and new water and sewage lines that are being put in place around Baghdad and elsewhere in Iraq? Military barracks. Police stations. Hundreds of schools all across Iraq.

SIGIR also knows where most of its money is going and who is committing fraud. They are going after the fraudsters as well.

Convictions report

Suspensions and Disbarments

List of Contracts

But, hey. Let the Independent tell you what to think and believe instead. Media rags like that thrive on suckers.

The democrats more so because there are more of them in congress.

Not before 2006, when a Republican President and Republican Congress sent our nation and our money to war in Iraq.

Don't forget "mortgaging" my generation's future, and losing thousands of american lives

And yet, here we are with a Democrat Congress and a Democrat Pres and from the looks of it nothing is going to change in Iraq.

Is that your professional opinion based on the first 3.5 weeks of his presidency?

Your professional opinion based on the first 3.5 weeks of his presidency is that he can do no wrong.

Why are you so surprised to see that there are people on the opposite side of the extreme spectrum? Its like the exact version of you, but instead they are republican.
