A Director Speaks...
For those who put little stock in the criticism about outside contractors in Iraq, linked is a portion of a filmmaker's testimony to Congress about the insane war profiteering going on in Iraq at taxpayer expense.
It's sickening.

From the statement: "Cost-plus and no-bid contracts are hopelessly undermining our efforts and costing the taxpayers billions. They do not operate within a free-market system and have no competition, but instead create a Stalinist system of rewarding cronies. In a letter from Sgt. Jon Lacore talking about the enormous amount of waste, he said, 'I just can't believe that no one at all is going to jail for this or even being fired or forced to resign.' "
Who's ultimately responsible for this? The Commander-in-Chief.
