Last night "60 Minutes" reported on the disappearance of more than $500 million to help equip the Iraqi army. Yeah, that's bad, and who knows where those funds went and to what purpose, but this isn't the first time some of our taxpayer money has gone missing in Iraq. Recall that nearly $9 billion is still unaccounted for -- and this GOP congress continues to look the other way and do nothing about trying to track down where it went. That kind of money can purchase lots when it comes to weapons that may eventually be used against us, possibly here on our soil.
