They know where every dollar for corruption ended up.
So, no.  It&#039;s not lost.</description>

		<description>&lt;strong&gt;LIAR !&lt;/strong&gt;

I don&#039;t relish the idea of calling someone out for what they are however, even as a registered-repubican I can&#039;t take anymore of Bush, Rice and the rest of the minions that continue to rewrite history.  It is well documented that American treasure and the spilled-blood from our brave troops are a direct result of the incompetence of the neocons.

I stand corrected, Condi is not only a liar she is incompetent!!  Burn in hell Condi!</description>

		<description>On January 20, 2009, at the moment Obama says &quot;I do&quot;, the 5 million or so citizens gathered throughout Washington DC, should surround the place of swearing in, and sequester booosh and Deadeye dick until the Capital police arrest them. Do not listen to the phoney secret service dickhead gestapo, in fact arrest them too, and just overwhelm the fuking tratiors on the stage and do not let them off.

		<description>&quot;I don’t think that you will find that anybody is arguing that there was corruption in the American programs.&quot;

What planet is you living on?

Nobody at the country club, Condi, but the American public feels it has been taken to the cleaners by your monumental scam of a war in Iraq. 

Admit it, Ms. Rice. You, Dick Cheney, George Bush and most of his friends are leaving office in disgrace. No &quot;legacy tours&quot; can cover up your crimes and incompetence.</description>

		<description>Of course none of it was &#039;lost&#039; to corruption. They know exactly where it went. Right into their war mongering pockets. That is not corruption to them, it is &#039;opportunity&#039;. Just like blaming the poor for the economic meltdown. They also mistimed that one. It was supposed to happen on Obama&#039;s watch so they could also blame him. And by the way, where did the $330 billion of the bail out money go so far? Hmmm.</description>

		<description>Dumb Question:  As I remember the news reports, rather large sums of money were simply not accounted for.

If we can&#039;t account for the funds, how do we know whether it was lost or given to corruption or not ?

OTOH, we do know that even our own US Sanctioned contractors built buildings that couldn&#039;t be inhabited and connected electric wires to shower drains.  So even without deliberate corruption, the quality was rather low.</description>
