Everything the Bush Junta Knows, It Learned From Enron


The NYT reports that:

The State Department agency in charge of $1.4 billion in reconstruction money in Iraq used an accounting shell game to hide ballooning cost overruns on its projects there and knowingly withheld information on schedule delays from Congress, a federal audit released late Friday has found.
The agency hid construction overruns by listing them as overhead or administrative costs, according to the audit, written by the Special Inspector General for Iraq Reconstruction, an independent office that reports to Congress, the Pentagon and the State Department.

Called the United States Agency for International Development, or A.I.D., the agency administers foreign aid projects around the world. It has been working in Iraq on reconstruction since shortly after the 2003 invasion.

The report by the inspector general’s office does not give a full accounting of all projects financed by the agency’s $1.4 billion budget, but cites several examples.


NOW can we impeach the president? He swore to take care to enforce the law.

I hate these fucking fuckers. Who among us doubts that the money is even now lining Dick Wormtounge Cheney's Haliburton pockets?

Thanks Sandra Day! Couldn't let them count the votes in Florida, could you?
