Question

Looks like this confirms that Bush buddies have been profiteering from the billions Chimp alloted for Iraq. No wonder there are millions unaccounted for.

Answer 1

Yep, I'm sure the Smirking Baboon of Doom will have a few bucks to spruce up the front yard with some more rusted washing machines and junk Ford trucks down home in Crawford.

If a congressional auditor says it's all screwed up, it must really be a catastrophe. Did you ever see the one where Larry, Curly, and Moe were building houses? Imagine them rebuilding a nation with their brains fried on bad coke and cheap PCP--- you have a clear picture of the Bush Klan in action.

Since Bush and his crew are obviously all from BizarroLand and they haven't done one thing right in six years, maybe they should do it all backwards. Let the building contractors blow up Iraq, and let the soldiers rebuild the houses. We'll all be home by Christmas!

I see where NASA just gave their gargantuan new contract to Bush's new best friends at Lockheed-Martin over Northrup-Grumman and Boeing. No kickbacks there, I'll bet.

If Lockheed-Martin pulls a Ken Lay, I wonder who the next Martha Stewart will be? I wouldn't want to be Oprah!

Once again, you take a story and spin it your way, when any normal reader can determine the truth.

"Fraud and corruption were not common but "waste is an issue," he said, noting that $6 billion, the biggest percentage of the fund, had been swallowed by the cost of protecting sites from insurgents."

And if you deal anything at all with contractors, especially in rebuilding projects, you know that waste is ALWAYS an issue. It will be an issue with Iraqi companies, as it is with American companies as well.

Also the story is about some individuals within Iraq that are disappointed that more of the reconstruction business has not been given to Iraqi companies. So it is expected for them to throw around accusations that the American companies are not doing something right.

Now to think from OUR perspective... If we are fronting the bill for a majority of the reconstruction, why would we not want that economic flow to go into the GDP of the United States? If we spend the $$$ spend it with our own companies. If we would throw it to the Iraqi companies more, then you would have the uber-libs such as wacko KooKoo here complaining that we are just giving money away hand over fist outside of our country.

maximum vest are being replaced with Kevlar or different ceramics regulation enforcement and our troops help you recognize that a steel vest is risky without Kevlar decrease than it. steel can block grenades yet they do no longer block bullets or armor piercing rounds. steel plate will reason the bullet to ricochet and it may kill you. the right thank you to equip a vest is ceramic on the exterior Kevlar decrease than that then deramex then the steel and a layer of the suitable fabric decrease than that steel should not be on suitable.

Answer 4

The whole Iraq war is profit and loss statement for the VP and his oil mafia.

Look at the profits they are reaping. They should at least pay a million each to all the dead soldier family as windfall profit.

Answer 5

I don't understand why people would say he's stupid. He seems to be doing rather well for himself and his friends out of taxpayer's money. Great, isn't it: first they pay for the war, then they pay for reconstruction.
No wonder he's so keen on doing the same in Iran.

Answer 6

America DOES NOT CARE!!!! Don't you get it. To criticise your president is to be a traitor because this country was apparently built on CONFORMITY and ABSOLUTE TRUST in the Federal Government. And you are ANTI AMERICAN to disagree with Bush.

OH WAIT!!!! That's Cuba's motto.

Answer 7

It is the way of the Republican Party to screw the American people when in office. Almost every scandal involving mega dollars took place within a Republican administration.

That is why I vote Republican.

I guess I just love getting thescrew

Answer 8

as an engineering inspector for a large firm, "waste is a common problem"(as stated in your article) happens on mostly all big contract jobs. From my experience, contractors are there to make money. The less material used and time allowed on the contract accounts for the "big" money on a job. But to blame Bush for this is simply irrational!!!!!
