It seems to me that this is the kind of "Ignorance" regarding "Rules" which looks a lot like the people who have been running the Pentagon during the Iraq war have simply been stealing U.S. Taxpayer dollars and giving it to their friends. Am I mistaken? That is what this looks like, No? A confession that a massive crime has been committed against every taxpaying citizen of the United States, and that would certainly include myself. So why is no one handcuffing those responsible? If I announced that I had stolen BILLIONS of dollars from not only one person, but from millions of people, I have a feeling I wouldn't be walking around a free woman. But apparently, if you're the government, and you say that you "spent it" and you don't have any idea what you "got" for it, and you can't be held accountable because you weren't "prepared" or "knowledgeable" about how to handle funds and contractors during wartime, you just get to shrug your shoulders and say, "sawry. I know our nation is currently bankrupt, turns out we don't know what we did with all the money." But we're not stupid are we? Someone knows precisely where that money went and why there were no goods or services provided in exchange for it, but they're not telling...!
And if I'm not mistaken, this war is still on. Is there any way of knowing if this massive hemmorage of apparently unsupervised U.S. tax dollars is continuing as I write this? Something tells me it is.
Hooray for the thieves who have robbed us all blind. I hope every person who went out and voted for George Bush a first and second time has to scrape together their milk money this week. I know I will, and I didn't even vote for these motherfuckers.

Yeah.
I hope the first thing Pres. Obama does (if Billary doesn't assassinate him), is put all the Bushies on trial for their various crimes. Cheney's company Halliburton alone stole countless, and I do mean countless millions in Iraq. And who knows where all that $140/bbl oil money is going? Not to the Iraqi people, that's for sure.
I hope the Dems use this election to educate the American people as to the long history of theft and malfeasance in office from Grant to Bush. A vote for a Republican is a vote against yourself, if you weren't born rich & right-wing. Time we sent them off to Argentina or someplace else where'd they'd fit in better. If anybody'll have 'em.
