Is the GAO biased? Who picks the members of the GAO? Their Iraq report is being slammed by the Republicans.?

Answer 1

The GAO is a non partisan organization which reports directly to Congress. Its staff is hired through the civil service system. http://www.gao.gov/careers/index.html

Over the years GAO reports have been criticized by whichever party was not in power at the time of the report - because the GAO's job is to make sure that government money isn't being wasted, no matter which party is in control of the Executive or Legislative branch of the government.

Answer 2

Reports about Iraq must not be curtailed so that the people will know since their taxes are being used to fund the war.
