Political Quotes

“the state of the Union is asleep. This administration cannot account for $9 billion it controlled in Iraq for a 9-month period ending last October. Wake up, America. While $9 billion went unaccounted for, the administration did not have enough money for bullet-proof vests or armor-plated protection for troops. It fought against increasing the combat death benefit and cut veterans benefits. Yet, for 9 months, an average of $30 million a day, totaling $9 billion, could not be accounted for by the administration's Coalition Provisional Authority, according to the Inspector General. Do we hear a grand jury stirring? Was the $9 billion stolen? Was it used for bribes for peace or rent-a-friend or a paid assassin program? Was it funneled elsewhere to spend money to foment chaos, disorder and violence? The administration could not find WMDs, Osama bin Laden, and now $9 billion is unaccounted for. They want another $80 billion, while Halliburton makes a killing on overcharges. And they want us to trust them with Social Security? I do not think so. Wake up, America. Your democracy is disappearing.”
