Our Leaders: Freedom Means Ignorance; Continuing Down the Slippery Slope

The single lesson the wingnuts learned from Vietnam (and it's the wrong one): Keep us in the dark:
US stops audit of Iraq rebuilding

A US government agency that has exposed corruption in Iraqi reconstruction projects will close in 2007.

Washington lawmakers have reacted with shock at the discovery that an obscure clause in a military spending bill will terminate the work of the auditor.
Link.

And this proves one of the foremost reasons the 'publicans in Congress have to be kicked out: they rubber stamp everything this historically inept and arguably treasonous administration wants. They either voted for this bill thoughtlessly or knew that it was shutting down the agency and agreed with keeping voters ignorant. Neither is acceptable.

Who needs these enablers? Not us. They've done no good....
