"Outrage" at Kuric and NBC for ZERO follow-up on the $9B "theft"
Edited on Mon Jan-31-05 10:20 AM by cthrumatrix
This can't go on folks.

We can't sit there and watch the media "enable the theft of our tax dollars"

When Katie Curic does ZERO follow-up or demanding accountability of $9B - that Bremer "let go"....enough is enough.

WHo has a number for NBC --- they should be flooded with irate phone calls today!


Let's call today !!! It's our tax dollars!

from Underpants:
Bremer was on talking about how great a job he did and how great we are doing training Iraqis. Katie said (close quote)~"Oh and I can't let you go without asking about another little matter there seems to be $9 Billion missing from the Iraqi Treasury how do you respond to that?"
Bremer:"Well we were in the middle of a WAR we didn't have time to set Western accounting measures.....the commanders on the ground told me that these funds needed to be spent to rebuild, you realize it was an economy much like our own Great Depression, so I instructed be released as requested and I did establish an inspector general in every ministry (didn't find anything)..."

Katie:"Okay thank you"

4. Let the money soar! Let it soar like it's never soared before!
We have liberated the $9B, like we have liberated the oil. It's experiencing freedom! Let the freedom of the money be free and full of liberty!

5. It's Good Stuff, Isn't It?
Especially when Tim Russert is still asking follow-up questions about Kerry's Vietnam service.

15. First we gotta find Rummy's missing $2,300,000,000,000.
"According to some estimates we cannot track $2.3 trillion in transactions," Rumsfeld admitted.
