12 Billion dollars sent to Iraq is missing. I am almost appalled but very little appalls me anymore. Could this money have been intercepted by enemies of America and now be used against us? Have we not heard it all now? 'Staggering Amount' of Cash Missing in Iraq - by Emad Mekay

Well, There's a MOTIVE for the Criminal Fraud, isn't it?

It is the fate suffered by all tax-payers: their money is going down the drain. "Let's not call it robbery, but let's call it taxation!" The enemies of the USA are seated in Congress and other white, innocuous houses.

I checked down the back of the couch, it wasnt there but I did find some loose change, almost enough to go buy a coke. [:D]

MzMia....rather than "enemies" intercepting it from the good ol' Americans....it seems more plausible and likely in my opinion that the one who intercepted it was Bush himself hahahahaha.....[:D] Anyways.,,,how the hell do you lose 12 billion? I think it was stolenby politicians and the white house, and threw this to the media as if it had been lost....yes I am cynical when it comes to these things. I hope for the benefit of taxpayers, this money is found and put to good use, in the US not wasted in Iraq.

Positive spin with that much money being spent over there some of it had to go missing and is that much that bad. Of course I think it is bad but this is what you get when the Republicans and many Democrats rubber stamped funding for Iraq. There was little to no oversight. Hopefully the Democrats will grow some balls and start demanding that all money be accounted for, but I am not holding my breath. Same thing is happen and is happening still with Katrina.

Nice "Fiscal Responsibility" by ersatz "Conservatives".

The incompetance and dereliction of duty by this current administration is unbelievable! The "U.N." can't find $22-$24 B that's "missing" in the "Oil for Food" program and our government wants to give them even more money and "work" with the "U.N.?" Our borders are wide open and illegal aliens cost the U.S. Taxpayers $92 B last year and this government wants to have a "guestworker" program with Mexico? The people in Washington need to learn one word only, "Deportation." "Foreign Aid" programs are up to who knows what ($40-$70B not including Iraq) and all the money is stolen and this government wants to continue funding them? And it's the same people and corporations who are making the money off of these programs year after year after year! We have our Troops in more than 130 foreign countries defending their borders in many cases but don't defend our own? I think it's imperitive that we throw everyone out of office in the next three elections! If someone holds office vote them out! Voting for Repubs over Dems or vice versa is just exchanging one set of theives for another and won't do any good! The U.S. Taxpayer is getting absolutely fucking RAPED!

I've mentioned her before, but it's apropos now. Elizabeth de la Vega called the run up to Iraq a "Fraud Worse Than Enron", and those jokers got sent to Federal-Pound-Me-In-The-Ass Prison.

We've got to get it back! After all, that's enough money to fund the war for another 3-4 days!

No, I have not found it yet. If I find it, I will let you all know. How much is the reward for finding it?

Watch Lou Dobbs on CNN at 6 pm weeknights. And, a lot of us are calling, e-mailing, faxing, and writing letters to our congressmen and senators on a regular basis. The more people we can get to do that the better! And keep doing it! They work for us! Who's your congressman and senators? We need to get rid of the two "Big Box" Partys!

Sad truly Sad.....its not lost...just like the Nam war......its in NASA....isn't it odd that about the time the war ended our moon flights ended....then during peace we got cost effective (kinda) with a reusable shuttle.....then the space station falls off schedule....about then Bush starts work on Mars flights and not too far away we got into Iraq....now lets say I'm a nut job and crazy.....wanta bet dem's fund the war even after being elected on anti-war talk. a billion a day give or take and we can't buy one suit of body armor....can't up armor humvee more than a few a month? Come on I've been in the area and no mud hut costs as much as we pay even with fraud. What right mind buy's $500.00 hammers? Ever try to get money from the VA? You'd swear it was blood from a turnip.

You want to vote them out of office and yet you keep writing them letters? Anyway, when they are voted out of office you get others exactly like them back.
