IRAQ: WAR: Iraq Panel Assails Bush Use of 'Emergency' War Budgets
Iraq Panel Assails Bush Use of 'Emergency' War Budgets

WASHINGTON -- In a little-noticed section of its report, the bipartisan
Iraq Study Group lambasted the method the Bush Administration has used to
pay for the Iraq war, saying its reliance on "emergency" budgeting
procedures has circumvented congressional oversight and led to billions of
taxpayer dollars spent on extras and pet projects not directly related to
the war.
The White House early next year plans to send Congress its largest
supplemental spending request for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan since
the budgeting practice began in 2001. The total figure is still being
worked out, but congressional officials have been told it could be as much
as $160 billion -- the vast majority to be spent on Iraq.
That is in addition to $70 billion Congress has already appropriated in
advance for the operations there over the next 10 months, adding up to
$230 billion, nearly twice what was provided for the previous fiscal year.
To date, the government has spent nearly half a trillion dollars in Iraq
and Afghanistan.
Because the money is not tallied in the usual budget, it isn't factored
into the federal deficit or subject to mandatory spending caps and
oversight provisions.
But in its broad assessment of the war, the Iraq Study Group said the
American people deserve to know exactly where the money is going. It
recommended that President Bush begin including money for the war in his
annual budget request for the 2008 fiscal year -- due on Capitol Hill next
February.
"The public interest is not well served by the government's preparation,
presentation, and review of the budget for the war in Iraq," according to
the report. "The circumvention of the budget process by the executive
branch erodes oversight and review by Congress."
