$8.8 BILLION missing under Bremmer. $1 BILLION missing under the Iraqi Defense Ministry.

Run rate est at $6 BILLION/MONTH with no end in sight.

In the meantime:

- Peak oil this decade? This year?
- Global warming causing more severe hurricanes?
- China stealing stealth technology?
- China/India taking professional jobs from the US?
- Republican suggested cuts in social programs are some $20 BILLION less than the estate cuts for multimillionaires.

You think you guys can keep the eye on the really important subjects or are you going to revert to god/guns/gays next year.

Last I read, US oil companies had paid over half the kickbacks to Saddam, including many ultrawealthy chimp boosters in Texas like Oscar Wyatt.

It's still dwarfed by the 8.8 billion the chimp can't account for in Iraq - that's not even being investigated by the party in power..
