Where do you start to investigate $12 billion missing dollars ??

[kentuck]

I think Bremer is a good start. Find out whose hands the money went thru. No doubt, most would never be found. However, it appears to this common citizen that this may be the largest heist in world history. Three-hundred and sixty three tons of money! Surely there was some paperwork that followed these pallets? It's not as if they were pallets of flour.

It's time for a couple of special investigators - not just one. This investigation is too big for just one person. Congress should request that Mr Bush appoint an group of investigators immediately. Of course, he will refuse. But the public must be made aware of this huge crime. Twelve billion dollars. Twelve thousand millions of dollars. Where did it go??

1. A heist this BIG is ALMOST unimaginable till 'WE' remember.........

WHO 'thought' THEY pulled it off. The somebodies that approved THIS unbelievable money sham should be wearing orange jumpsuits and having their mail forwarded to their new residence in Gitmo, Cuba.

2. How about the 2.5 TRILLION Rumsfeld said was missing from the

Pentagon?

12 billion is nothing.

9. Yeah, whatever happened to that? Not much in the M$M

n/t

3. Exploded dye packs or blood?

hard to tell the difference without the proper equipment - magical CSI cotton-swabs.

Lot's of people playing Monopoly. Why did the FED stop publishing the, I think, M3 report - the one that stats-out the $$ hot of the press and into the game????

4. So it took this long, oh those repbulicans waste so much time

and money.

Too bad the Dems were weak on this.

5. Step 1 - find out that "third world bookkeeping" would have kept VERY GOOD track of the money..

That talking point that because they didn't have computers and Quicken in the field they couldn't keep track of the money is just so much bullshit.

They kept track of transactions before they invented PAPER...

6. Don't forget they had to fund the '04 Election Theft.

7. Looking for missing money

Start by looking into Hellzaburnin' Corp., and look in GW Hoover's & Tricky Dick "go fsck yourself" Cheney's pockets.

8. According to Bremer, it was because they had to 'move quickly'

:eyes:

10. Bremer says he just misplaced it in his other pants.......

the money is not MISSING, it was STOLEN. Not stolen from Bremer but stolen by the US Government from taxpayers to enrich their already rich friends.

11. I recall a report in the New York Times, when the first couple of $Billion was

flown to Baghdad.

The article reported, $8 Hundred Thousand was immediately
flown out of Iraq, destination unspecified.

Included in this NYT article,
A spokesperson for the U.S. appointed Iraq government
stated: 'The $800,000 was to be used for the purchase
of military equipment'.

12. i would go directly to Bush's pockets and to Poppy's trust accounts.

13. A dollar to a dough nut that a multitude of Swiss Bank accounts were

opened right around that time......

14. If you are a repub - you look away and then scream about the UN

and "food for oil" funds. Look, look... over there *pointing*

Seriously, I think Bremer is a good place to start.

TPMMuckraker btw just reported about a secret CIA contract (from Foggo) that went to Wilkes for bottled water. Decided to stop using an Iraqi company (lets just make more unemployed Iraqis...) in favor of a US firm - owned by a buddy.
