U.S. civilian authorities in Iraq cannot properly account for nearly $100 million that was supposed to have been spent on reconstruction projects in south-central Iraq, government investigators said Wednesday.
There are indications of fraud in the use of the $96.6 million, according to a report by the Special Inspector General for Iraq Reconstruction. A separate investigation of possible wrongdoing continues.
More than $7 million of the total is unaccounted for, the report said. An additional $89.4 million in payments do not have the required supporting documents.

I find it difficult to account for the $ 150 Billion spent invading Iraq, so what's another $100 mil?

How abou the trillions that are unaccounted for, or accounted for in useless ideas like a 2 million dollar grant to study cow gas emmisions and its effect on the environment (a real granT) that goes on right here in the good ole USA.
Priorities gentlemen, priorities.

Not that I feel much better about this...but at least the money is accounted for...while the thought of some dude chugging a corona in brazil (with stolen u.s. money) kinda troubles me.
