> You changed subjects. No I didn't. The money and the loss thereof is directly related to the subject at hand. It just looks like now we get to find out _why_ the money was mismanaged and mishandled.
> We discussed that last year. Didn't someone explain that at the time > to get thing done people had to be paid cash and record keeping > sucked. Okay. and your point? Record keeping should not have sucked. Whose responsibility is it to have seen that it didn't suck? > Seems the biggest complaint was paying the Iraqi soldiers > without verifications. Again, whose responsibility was it to see that the accounting didn't suck? Whose? Seems to me that a business in the US that has large payouts of unaccounted for cash, that seems grounds for an investigation. Not with this administration. No sir, that's partisan BS and liberal media running amok. I mean come on, how _dare_ the people actually ask for an accounting of the monies spent in their name? How dare a citizen question the authority of the administration to pick who they want, when they want, perhaps even looking into the backgrounds of those placed in charge of such a large amount of money? I mean, my GOD! The temerity! Now, when it comes to doling out tax-payer supplied money, remember, that's your money as well as my own, I think there should be some accounting. Some responsibility taken. Personally, I'd like to know that the guy (or girl... to be fair) in charge of that money actually has clue one about what to do with it and how to account for it. Tell me, what are your accounting practices when it comes to petty cash, contract labor or suppliers? Do you have rules at your company that say you've got to account for every last penny? How long do you think you'll be able to dodge the IRS if you didn't? If you do, do you think you'd give the job of running your accounting to someone with no accounting experience? Would that be prudent? > During that time they felt it was more important to get them on board > then to leave them without money while payroll systems were being set > up. More important to set up an stock exchange with the latest computer systems than to just get the thing up and running? More important to set up clinics instead of spending some money on emergency room repair and upgrades? Privatizing the Iraqi prescription drug forumlaries rather than restructuring the existing system? There's more. lot's more and it is astounding, and absolutely maddening. > Strange how there's no mention of it since July 2005. Heh... yeah, odd that.
