Citizens Against Government Waste (CAGW) has a huge blind spot in its shallow analysis.

The Department of Death budget for FY 2004 is approaching $700 Billion. $401 in the "stated budget", a $150 Billion supplemental for Iraq operations and other graft, $25 Billion in hidden military expenses in shops such as the Department of Energy and another $25 Billion for black budget items.

This is the fattest target for fraud hunters in the universe, and CAGW is guilty of turning a blind eye to this huge pork barrel. Shame on them.

Government waste - a trillion dollar war?
If Iraq takes 5-10 years ti pacify it could cost us a trillion bucks yet make the Bushie oil companies wildly wealthy.
