were you around a few years ago when the war started? i dont think obama was in office then... or was he just disguised as a white dude then?

did you not read the article?

QuoteWith the establishment of the Coalition Provisional Authority, which ran Iraq shortly after the start of the U.S. invasion in 2003 until mid-2004, about $20 billion was placed into the account. The $9.1 billion audited by the Iraq reconstruction inspector general were funds withdrawn from that account between 2004 and 2007.

The report found that the Defense Department could not "readily account for its obligations, expenditures and remaining balances associated" with the DFI. At issue was $8.7 billion, or 95 percent of the withdrawn funds.

Of this amount, the Pentagon could not account at all for $2.6 billion, according to the audit.

i didnt think obama got into office till 2008 ??? i could be wrong tho...

Just meant that government has a lot of corruptness to it and those people are all working together as progressives. Sorry if I pissed anyone off with that. It wasn't a black or white thing, just a anti big government comment.

i am definately not pissed off. i like a good debate, i was just giving a fact, that obama wasnt in office when this money thing happened. it wasnt a white or black thing. i think that King George was an idiot, thats all.

im not sticking up for obama, if anything im sticking up for him,(which i didnt vote for him, but he helps out the veterans of the U.S) just simply make sure it was known that he wasnt the one that was responsible for the misappropriated funds, this specific time...
