Iraqi oversight commitee disbanded behind closed doors
Edited on Fri Nov-03-06 10:30 PM by walldude
After the release last week of a damning report by the Iraqi oversight commitee on fraud, waste and missing Iraq reconstruction money the White House stood up for the soldiers and American people the best way it knows how. By DISBANDING THE COMMITEE IN A BEHIND CLOSED DOORS VOTE. Thats right by firing the auditors! No more oversight! :woohoo:

The news has ignored this with the exception of Cafferty. C&L has video of what he had to say:

This link is where you can see some of what the commitee reported on:

edit for speeling and clarification.

1. We don't have any oversight here, so why should they have any there?
:sarcasm:

2. Pretty amazing, isn't it?
Just before the mid-terms too. You'd think they'd at least have waited until after the mid-terms to fire the guy. I guess they really aren't worried much about accountability.

3. Yeah considering they are the party of "Fiscal Responsibility"
Gee I bet if I don't pay my taxes this year they won't fire the guy who audits me...
