OT Just a quick one here, busy. How much more of this happy feelings BS misappropriation of funds are even liberals willing to tolerate from these thieves: When they are willing to STEAL money for one purpose & give it away to friendly liberals without legal precedent - how can we even think anything is beyond them - even manipulation of the price of commodities for profit? Clinton Administration Squanders Iraq Liberation Money UPI Tuesday, Aug. 22, 2000 WASHINGTON - The Clinton administration has been spending the money Congress appropriated to overthrow Saddam Hussein on contractors and consultants while withholding arms from the Iraqi opposition, experts said. The latest example is a workshop proposed by the Conflict Management Group, a nonprofit offshoot of Harvard Negotiation Project at Harvard Law School. The subcontractor group describes its objective in turbid academic jargon: "To identify, diagnose, and enhance the ability of the Iraqi opposition parties, and the individuals within the parties, to discuss, design, and facilitate intra- and inter-organization dialogue, cooperation, and problem solving." Translation: Pull Iraqi resistance fighters out of the field, bring them to Harvard, and teach them how to get along. "They couldn't find Iraq on a map," said Francis Brooke, the Washington representative of the main opposition group.
