Audit Season

For an Administration so easily influenced by patronage, blind faith in the private sector and the Texas buddy system, the audit has become an enemy.

No matter which organization-- the Governmental Accountability Office, the former Coalition Provisional Authority, the Pentagon, etc.-- conducts a comprehensive review of spending and achievement in Iraq, the result is always a damning testament to the cronyism and incompetence that pervades this Administration.

Today, California-based Parsons Corp. announced that it will fall far short of its reconstruction goals in Iraq due to "shoddy work and negligent government oversight." LINK
