No one is asking, or demanding this administration too investigate the lost 9 billion dollars. As a tax payer I want to know. I am sick and tired of these crooks in charge of our money. It's time we start a campaign to investigate this 9 billion dollars, and know exactly where our tax money is going.

3. You mean $9 trillion I believe, the $5.3 trillion surplus that Clinton
...left when Bush came into office and the $3.7 trillion in deficits that have now being run up by Bush since taking office. Well $3.7 trillion went to the wealthiest 1% of taxpayers (that's the group who earn $250,000 plus annually, corporations got a major chunk, military defense systems costing trillions and pet programs that republicans are hiding from public view including a 40% rise in interest on federal debt service, the debt now approaching $8 trillion.

4. It seems to me that these bogus organizations that are popping
up like Talon News and USA Next don't seem to be able to say where they are getting their funding from and they seem to have pretty direct ties to the GOP and the White House. I think this would be a good target for the Freedom of Information Act to be invoked by some legitimate journalists. I think the General Accounting Office would be a good start.
