This is the most outrageous corruption I have ever heard of. It particularly distresses me as the administration claims "to have a plan for victory!"

They had no plan in Iraq after the invasion. They had no means to secure the entire country. They had a plan and called it "cakewalk."

How dare they say they have a plan.

To put this in context. Once I served with an ordnance officer responsible for arming the twelve jet bombers in our squadron. The aircraft gattling gun expended hundreds of rounds of ammo in brief moments. After a two week deployment with the airwing at Fallon, Nevada, after dropping tons of bombs, and expending tens of thousands of rounds of 20mm in various exercises, the ordnance officer was relieved of his duties, disciplined and forced to retire, after failing to account for one, I say again, one round of 20mm ammunition. The round was found by the way.

The deception in the headline is just one more disinformation outrage.
