Hurrah for Rep Henry Waxman

The top auditors for the government say $10 billion dollars has been wasted or poorly tracked in the Irag war and reconstruction. The GAO gave the report to the Oversight Committee headed by Rep Henry Waxman who said he intended to investigate the fraud, waste and abuse agressively. Incidently the big abuser was Halliburton,the oil-field services firm once headed by Vice President Dick Cheney,with $2.7 billion in question. The problem is that by the time all the graft is uncovered Bush/Cheney will be out of office.
