Just When You Thought...

you could not be any further outraged...

Provision in Iraq bill blocks US from auditing crooks...
"Exactly how and why the change was made isn't clear. Republican Appropriations Committee aides say legislators shifted the Iraq money to the foreign operations accounts at the request of the White House, not to curb oversight. They say administration officials sought the change to streamline accounting so the Iraq reconstruction would be incorporated into the State Department's operations and budget rather than kept in stand-alone accounts."

I read on an Iraqi's blog yesterday that the Oil Ministry building in Iraq had two floors that had a fire recently that burned for quite some time. Records were kept there that might show fraud and where all the money has gone.....sound familiar?

Don't know if it is true or not, the M.O. is the same old, same old.

Mmmm. Let's see.. GERBIL 101 in business:

"The Senate last week approved $109 billion in additional spending for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, Yet, "The Senate last week approved $109 billion in additional spending for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, yet "the administration has spent $20.9 billion to reconstruct Iraq's infrastructure and modernize its oil industry, but the effort hasn't restored the country's electricity output, water supply or sewage capabilities to prewar levels." And yet, the auditors are shielded of seeing the cost... Yup, coverup! When a auditor has no proof where the money is going and allocate, you know it is a coverup.. I wonder how the American people and business respond this message sent by the Gerbil and company. This new tactic by the Gerbil alters the code of ethics and policies by the Internal Revenue Service. The Gerbil rewrite justice and law and now he rewrite the IRS and auditors' code of ethics and rules!!

I'm in the 69%. I wonder what would happen if I were audited, and told the IRS that my records were accidentally thrown in my wood stove?

Over and over


...please watch this:

...these voices in my head...


Two little voices screaming at each other in my head, over and over:

"No, no, no, this can't be!!!"

...and...

"What if it's true?!? What if even part of it is true?!? What if it even comes close to the truth?!?!"

It's just too corrupt, too perverted, too vile, too putrid...

and then, this upsurging fear in me...

A third little voice inside me...

"Have we really gone this far? Is there any hope, anymore?"

I try to comfort myself, telling myself, over and over again, justice, truth and good people prevail...

Now we see how and why the GOP wont impeach or charge Bush with anything. Their stealing the taxpayers dollars right under the publics nose and laughing all the way to the bank. It maight answer some questions as to why some Dems aren't fighting against Bush and Company.

It's obvious that house cleaning must happen in November (if they aren't already indicted or planning to spend more time with their families)!
This is all of Congress, not just the ReThugs. The fact is, Congress no longer represents us. They are way too busy raking it in for their own interests.
The best thing is for ALL incumbents to go away....we need to clean house by refusing to return these scumbags (ALL of them) to office.

Congress must be held responsible to uphold the duties of their offices. Even now, "most" people say "their" senator or congressperson is "ok"....why? Because the pork is going to the states.

Graft, bribery, corruption. This is a cancer and the American voting public can cut it out. Otherwise God help us all.

Evil to the core and all kinds of graff


This corruption in the administration is the worst I have seen in almost 50 years. Reminds me of WWII and a vision of Orwellian nightmares haunts me.

These fanatics must be stopped or millions will likely die. Blessings to you Patrick Fitzgerald you have earned great respect from many.
