Dov is the guy in charge when they couldn’t account for $1.5 trillion in Pentagon funds/assets. He currently works for giant government consultant Booz, Allen, Hamilton. The Carlyle Group downed Booz this past summer.

FIU?

This has to be a joke.

How many in-ya-face-bs from the dems?

What the hell are the dems thinking about?
Why do dems move as slow as “molasses going up hill during winter.” It really tees me off.

Why do the dems give in to a money grubbing bill? How does a 2 page bill turn into a 400+ page money grubbing speedy bs bill?

I know how the economy works. Whatever chimpy/mcchimpy does, don’t do.

Oh yeah repugs, F-uck You

This is just another Republican pyramid scheme with taxpayer money only going to corrupt, crony Republican companies and individuals…under the guise (and propaganda) of conducting taxpayer-friendly investigations into Republican-generated corruption.

but it probably amounts to BOTH with bushco…

The Bush administration’s lack of interest in recovering stolen funds is one of the great scandals of the war. The White House has failed to litigate a single case against a contractor under the False Claims Act and has not sued anybody for breach of contract. It even declined to join in a lawsuit filed by whistle-blowers who are accusing KBR of improper invoicing in Fallujah. “For all the Bush administration claims to do in the war against terrorism,” Grayson said in congressional testimony, “it is a no-show in the war against war profiteers.” In nearly five years of some of the worst graft and looting in American history, the administration has recovered less than $6 million.

So which is worse? Private Investigations or NO Investigations?

USIS not only can make money from contracting with the government. It can show up at Paulson’s Treasury window.

Here’s a piece on how much the company has been traded by the PEU boys:

Brigade homeland tours start Oct. 1

This whole thing is b.s. There is to be NO active army forces in the U.S. (especially this standing force) that is in any way Constitutional. Posse Comitus can be suspended in only two events: either insurrection or invasion. Insurrection does NOT include a protest, but these troops are being prepared for “crowd control,” NOT an insurrection. The other rationale is to “help the American people in the event of a disaster.” That’s what the hel* the National Guard is for. Bring THOSE troops home…get them off the battlefield and out of the war zone. I do believe the government is preparing for a declaration of martial law, but their motive is still speculative.

Your are so correct I punched b and it should have been million. Yes 23 million to be exact. Thanks for the correction.

… And the wolf ALWAYS makes the best guard of the hen house!

Fox guarding the hen houses?

Or pimp, guarding the “stable”…

Gee, why does this sound like Paulson being put in charge of $700 Billion in taxpayer funds to bail-out his crony pals on Wall Street?

from the CSIS Website..

The outrage over (President)Garfield’s death generated a national movement, which eventually resulted in the establishment of the Civil Service Commission in 1883. One of its duties was to oversee the investigation of the background, suitability, and loyalty of employees and applicants for federal positions.

For almost half a century, that responsibility was in our province as the Investigations Service arm of the Office of Personnel Management.( an Arm of the Civil Service Commission?)

Formation of USIS
On July 8, 1996, USIS was formed on the initiative of the President and Congress as an employee-owned company. USIS is steeped in the tradition of providing high-quality, timely investigative services to its customers. ( Bill Clinton’s effort to end the Era of Big Govt., by privitizing services?)

Today, USIS is the industry leader in employment background and drug screening services. USIS is recognized as a primary resource for business information and due diligence services and the pre-eminent supplier of national security and administrative STAFFING SUPPORT for U.S. government programs here and abroad.

S0…it seems that CSIS will be doing exactly the same things it is doing all over the world …but NOW in Iraq.
