Hey, Bush, why didja cut back on investigators to track down and disrupt al Qaeda? |
Despite the Richard Clarke controversy, George W. Bush is still trying
to portray himself as a no-compromises, tough-on-terror kinda guy.
Funny then that last week the White House denied an IRS request for 80
more criminal investigators to add to the 160 it currently has
tracking down and disrupting al Qaeda's financial networks.
And why was the request denied?
So Bush can save a mere $12 million.
Ah, there's nothing like frugality when it comes to stopping al Qaeda.
Sure, we can spend $150 billion making things worse in Iraq, but $12
million to actually do something useful in the war on terror?
Not a chance!
That reminds me, isn't it about time they fired some more gay
translators?
