Ah, but the Pentagon is hiding these
things:
*Pentagon 'hid' damning Halliburton audit*
*Suzanne

The
Pentagon stood accused of sitting on a damaging report from its own
auditors on a $108.4m (£56.6m) overcharge by Halliburton for its
services in Iraq yesterday.
In a scathing letter to George Bush,
Democratic congressmen Henry Waxman
of California and John Dingell of
Michigan said the Defence Contract
Audit Agency's audit was completes last
October - before the election.
They also note that 12 separate requests to
the Pentagon to view the
completed audits on the contractor's $2.5bn
contract to supply fuel and
other services in post-war Iraq had been
ignored.
"We would like to know why this audit report - and audit
reports on nine
additional task orders - are being withheld from
Congress," they wrote.
