U.S. hurricane aid fraud likely tops $1 bln "FEMA has yet to strike a proper balance between expedited assistance and good stewardship of taxpayer funds," said Sen.

An estimate given today (I think it may have been in the ISG report) is the USA will have spent two trillion dollars before the end of its involvement in the Iraq misadventure. Two Trillion Dollars. More than has ever been spent on any one thing, ever. Certainly a candidate for the worst ****up in recorded history. /daytripper (too bad impeachment won't make it all go away....)
