Comments on: Iraq Whistleblowers Vilified, Demoted

Those Who Speak Out Against Corruption In Iraq Reconstruction Say U.S. Gov't Treats Them Like Criminals

[pastdue1]

We so sorely need some honest, brave people in our government. We so sorely need someone with power who is as brave as these whistleblowers. The American people are becoming angrier and angrier with those who have the power to bring this all to light and still do nothing. We are becoming more and more ashamed that we do not know what to do about and how to fix our broken government. The American people do not care whether these brave people are Republicans, Democrats, Independents, Liberals, or Conservatives ~ we just want someone out there to represent us, so we can be proud again of being an American.

Yes, Yankee private contractors that were ripping off the Union Army...

[j-whitman]

Seven,,,,, Abe Lincoln created the whistle blower laws to protect the government from private contractors

[olgreyghost]

Hey Seven-Pesos:

If, as you say, the South is so bad, why did the Yankee dictator Lincoln attack us to make us stay when we wanted to leave? He needed someone to pay the bills the North ran up?

Bush is from a Yankee family, went to a Yankee school, and his political hero who he tries to emulate is the war-monger Lincoln.

There''s always something good in the South and the North. There is rarely anything good in politics and organized religion and even worse when they mix...

[seven-pesos]

the republican party loves the south...

southerners are so easy to fool.

a little flag waving here, a little bible thumping there.

those ignorant southerners fall right in line, boy!

rednecks and reborns...

bush''s kind of people.

war, hate, arrogance, christian creeps, republican snakes...

nothing good comes out of the south!

What is your agenda.....Northern Atheism?

Or are you still just an i d i o t?

[seven-pesos]

all the christians thought jimmy swaggart was a man of gawd...

until he got caught in a hohouse with a sk@nky ho.

then all the christians thought ted haggard was a man of gawd... until he got caught doing meth with his homosexual lover...

republican senator vitter was always proclaiming his christian faith... ''til his name showed up on a ho'' house guest list.

my gawd... what''s a christian to think?

ha,ha,ha.

ho''s, drugs and redemption...

christians get off on that *****, huh, christians?

war, hate, evil christian snakes...

nothing good comes out of the south!

Whistle blower protection means nothing if the legislative and judicial systems are up to their eyeballs in corruption themselves...which is the case. I wonder what percentage of the laws already in place are not being followed because of corruption in these two systems. You can write laws till the cows come home, but having no one with the b...alls or values to enforce them... they mean nothing, but politicians are always ready to introduce NEW laws to insure the already in place laws are followed. Why?

What a shame these people and thousands more throughout various situations of outing fraud and corruption in our businesses and governmental agencies have had to pay such a high price for staying true to their values. And the fraud and corruption grows. What a joke.

[roger_inkart]

We can only imagine how much safer and secure this nation would be if we had taken the money and effort wasted in Iraq and used it in THIS country.

What the Bush administration has done to the nation is an unspeakble crime. Shame on the Democrats for not protecting us from these villians and maniacs.

LOL
You''d be surprised; as was the case prior to 911, Americans are in a stupor.

[seven-pesos]

in the south you cannot be a non-believer and be elected to public office.

the church will not allow it.

and we all know who controls politics in the south.

evangelist snakes and christian creeps...

nothing good comes out of the south.

[agnim]

"Congress gave more than $30 billion to rebuild Iraq, and at least $8.8 billion of it has disappeared, according to a government reconstruction audit."

LOL

Talk about corruption. $9,000,000,000 worth

That''s now so-called ''aid'' works.

1, First the white people LIE & INFLATE any amount being offered as so-called ''aid''.

2. Then MOST OF IT STOLEN BY THE DONORS AGENTS.

3. And then leaders of developing countries are used as scapegoats to bear blame.

GREED makes Liars and Thieves of evil people

But the worse part of this devilish transaction

IS THE SELLING AMERICAN ARMS TO THE ENEMIES, SO THAT THEY CAN TURN AROUND AND KILL AMERICANS.

This is the kind of things that happen in UNPROVOKED wars started by warmongers, and which are meant to pursue personal ends and waste American lives.

[seven-pesos]

southerners hope to elect another faith professing, conservative republican.

the south hopes to win the all time loser''s award.

jefferson davis lost his war...
johnson lost his war...
bush will lose his war...

if the south can lose just one more war,

they will beat the french for most wars lost, ever!

ha,ha,ha.

those idiot southern republican christian creeps ought to stay in church and out of politics

the south can''t be depended upon to do the right thing for america.

[worried99]

This is where the news media has failed the American public. They should work to expose all the corruption and blatant theft of taxpayer''s money where ever it is found. They used to be working for the people but now it seems they are just in the entertainment business. I guess gross waste of taxpayer''s money does not sell as much copy as Paris Hilton''s latest escapade. I''m glad there are still some people left in this country that want to do the right thing. Unfortunately, they''re the minority and getting fewer.

[l8c6]

If this country were a moral country, those folks interrogating americans for exposing corruption would be imprisoned along with those who commanded them for the rest of their dying days.

I have lost all trust and faith in those who lead this country. I frankly think there is an illusive multinational base of power that has long sense lost a respect for our boundaries as a nation and whose goal is to destroy any faith and trust citizens may have in this government and replace it.

[radiob-2009]

A special investigation is needed here to either justify the statements made by the whistle blowers or refute them. If the whistle blowers statements are correct then a wider investigation needs to be undertaken.

[rushlimpdrug]

". . The only thing we have to fear is fear itself. . . "

Add to that "fear, bush, and the bush thugs".
Too bad more Americans don''t stand up to these bully thugs.

How much longer till this nightmare ends?

[cdfoxtrot]

This is the way of the neo-cons. The end justifies the means. I guess it''s true we get the leaders we deserve.

[gkc99]

The legacy of the Bushit administration--a corrupt giveway of taxpayer funds to insiders, with those who try to stop the corruption crushed by the crime bosses--er, the Dept. of Defense.

Wanna bet a lot of that corrupt money doesn''t make its way back into the hands of the Bushit administration officials and their backers?

And another reason why people should be extremely suspicious about statements concerning what "the troops" think; brainwashed by the Army, any that do see anything out of line will be sent of a private patrol of Fallujah at night if they speak up.

Has there ever been a more corrupt adminstration than the Bushit / chickenshit admin?
