    Yes ... the article points out that the waste of money is awful.

    The additional example of striving to keep all the malfeasance shrouded in secrecy is far more exemplative of the danger to the health of our society.

    This is a crazy, ideologically driven administration.

    They DONT have our interests in the forefront of their agenda.

    What is in the forefront of their agenda is getting their Neo-Conservative aparatchicks deeper and deeper into the bowels of our national bureaucracy.

    THATS why ROVE went on that rampage to ELIMINATE Attorneys General ... to ensconce pro-craazie Neo-Cons wherever he could.

    This administration is unprecedented because NEO-CONSERVATISM is unprecedented.

    Its a recent invention and this is the FIRST administration that was made up ENTIRELY of its adherents.

      It will take at least a couple of decades of decent Democrat presidents to undo the damages of Rove. He is probably the most dangerous man in America today.

        I dont have an argument with that n2n.

        Karl Rove is driven by ideological purity.

        As the 'architect' who came up with the strategy of pandering strictly to the Christian Fundamentalist base in America, you have to wonder, ... who exactly was working for who?

        How depraved does one have to be to 'as an atheist, embark on a cynical strategy of counting up the Christian Fundamentalists and going after them to achieve other goals.

        It would be one thing if the administration actually had, as part of their desire to serve, a desire to promote 'Faith Based Initiatives'.

        I would not have agreed with that ... but they would have been true to their word.

        Instead, as disenchanted White House insider, David Kuo, pointed out in his book; 'Tempting Faith' - the White House openly ridiculed the Religious Right as 'nutcases'.

        This administration is a MASSIVE FRAUD from beginning to end.

            Don't count Paul Wolfowitz out! He got preemptive war in the early 1990s Defense Planning Guidance, was the primary force in fighting for a Sadam invasion, and tried his darndest to corrupt the World bank too..... and still works for Dumya!

              A couple of people say that something is bad. The State department refutes it, but of course the far left faithful have to say that all Republicans are liars and corrupt. The party of compassion and hate crime laws spew hate from the far left. Anything conservative is hateful and not worth discussing.

              Just keep the blinders on as the country leaves you in the dust.

                You are a very foolish individual. When you wake up to reality, I hope it's not too late.

                  At least you are correct in referring to the Far Left. Let Cindy Sheehan run in Pelosi's district and see how many votes she gets - maybe 2-3% and that in the wackiest liberal district in the nation. Yet Republicans HAVE proven themselves as liars, and as corrupt, for the last seven years. Hiding under a rock and pretending this fact is not true doesn't the reality.

                  But what is truly ignorant is going into the Middle East with so little idea of their history and culture. Bribery and corruption? These are the wheels that grease Middle Eastern transactions. They are quite normal. Yet we act shocked that this occurs.

                  And come on Endo, who is really wearing the blinders? Take them off and maybe you will see what is going on around you...

                    Perhaps you could discuss how the policies and actions of the current administrations are conservative. I'd love to discuss this with you.

                    Can you show us where the state department has been truthful? You can start in a number of places. Pat Tillman, Abu Ghraib, WMD, any intel provided in the last 6 years, etc....

                    So, why should anyone believe what the state department states? They are a propaganda machine for the *good* of the people.

                    The state department should at least say they are going to vigorously investigate the allegations.

                    There is nothing conservative in pouring money into a corrupt government, though we seem to be doing that for many years now.

                      A few people? I though you were smart enough who appreciate who these "few people" are.....Alas.

                      Also, Endo, if you listen with both of those listening ears open, you will realize that Ms Rice does NOT refute it, she just talks around it.
