Pat Roberts, chairman of the Senate Cover-Up Committee, continues to thwart the completion of the report. FACT: CIA Review Panel Found Analysts Were Subjected To Pressure.

Little Normie is just another one of GDumbya's lapdogs . . . just like me. If he ever gets it in his head to investigate this contractor fraud in Iraq, GDumbya will invite him to lunch at the White House and bitchslap that idea out of him. Take it from me. I ought to know.

No, we won't get answers to the contractor boonedoggle because they are all very republican friendly/election donators. It comes out in the cases of Duke Cunningham, but even that is so over the top, it should have been caught sooner. I agree with the above, Coleman is a putz.

Interesting that there is no equivalent tax now that we're fighting "terrorism". Vast profits for all. Yea! At tax payers expense, of course. :-( During WWII, wasn’t there a substantial tax on companies doing the business of war?
