I want to know where my $8.7 billion went!

all she was in office them. I am composing one right now. And I think I am going to send it to every republican I can think of who rants and raves about fiscal responsiblity. That almost 10 billion dollars would make sure social security and medicare would stay fully funded for years and years to come.

They felt Iraq should pay for its own reconstruction.

They rose up, began protesting, and they are STILL taking it to the streets! This will hopefully put Jerry Brown in a very good light as well. Win, win, I hope!

"These outrageous pay practices are an insult to the hard-working people of Bell and have provoked righteous indignation in California and even across the country," Brown said. "I'm determined to get to the bottom of these exorbitant payouts and protect the state's pension system against such abuses, and today's subpoenas are an important step in that process."

The Times reported that Bell's city manager, Robert Rizzo, was earning nearly $800,000 in annual pay, making him the highest-paid government manager in the nation. Police Chief Randy Adams was paid $457,000 a year, and Assistant City Manager Angela Spaccia made $376,288.

Under pressure from residents, all three have resigned. At a City Council meeting Monday night, Bell residents are expected to push for the resignations of four of the five council members; each of the four makes $100,000 a year for a part-time job.



I do believe it really is time for taking it to the streets...

in warzones...that is s'kay...got it. :eyes:

that money of this magnitude is missing. This minimizes the amounts that the GOOP is complaining about, almost daily.

This will be quickly forgotten once the media finds out what Lindsay Lohan is having for dinner tonight...

in this latest Iraq War.

This time it would be a documentary.

that's a bunch of money, it was BenFranklins wrapped in plastic, put on pallets and taken to the Iraq Provisional Authority headquarters, where it was stuffed into file cabinets and desk drawers, I think Paul Bremer was in charge at that time but he was never questioned about that money going missing.

They did bust a spec4 in Manila playing poker with about 100K in his pockets and boots they traced back to the loot. (who'da thunk they'd bust a low ranker instead of a high roller?)

But we can't afford universal healthcare or upkeep on our infrastructure cause it just plain costs too much.:argh: :banghead:

It's only about $25 for every man, woman and child in the USA. The fact that just about all of it disappeared
into Republican hands is something they'd obviously prefer we overlook.
