Remember all that "missing" money? HA! It's not missing. It's in someone's back pocket.

33. Inspector General said about 50 OTHER investigations going on |
|
There are several sites dedicated to this, HalliburtonWatch.org,I recall, & the Citizens for Legit Govment has some..there has just been no CONGRESSIONAL oversite. The 'detective work', the 'paperwork' has been done FOR them,by concerned REAL People. Congress just need more persuasion, to do their dang jobs.and msm needs to be all over these crimes, high crimes,misdemeanors..

25. Wow-that was damning. Hopefully the rest of America will think of |

this report as they read about cuts in medicare, meals for the elderly, education, and the selling of our national Parks for a few million in profit when 8 BILLION is just plain "missing". :grr:

26. Did they cover all the twentysomething young Repubs who were sent |
|
over there to RUN the Coalition Provisional Authority?
Perhaps cover for the planned theft. I wonder how much of the money is in personal bank accounts, Republican campaign coffers, etc...

I just caught the embryo segment though.
We should all start having a funeral for any masses/organs that they remove from our bodies if we follow the logic of that one talking head. Sheesh!

41. The soldier with the brain injury when asked if we should be in Iraq: |
|
He hesitated - a LOT - then said something to the effect of: "We should be in Iraq... because the president has made that decision..."
That's the best he could come up with. Speaks VOLUMES.
