Political Factoid

"It has been called the largest
airborne transfer of currency
in history."
Between 2003 and 2008,
$40 billion of U.S. funds
were shipped - in cash -
from the N.Y. Federal
Reserve to one man
in Iraq.*
  
 
But that is okay.
  • It was Defense Department funds
    and not part of the general budget.
     
  • It was part of the "unfunded" war.
     
  • It was paid for by the Bush tax cuts.
* And there the audit trail really went
airborne ... as into thin air.
