Iraq Power and Water Still Not Working Properly
New York Times
WASHINGTON, Feb. 8 — Virtually every measure of the performance of Iraq's oil, electricity, water and sewerage sectors has fallen below preinvasion values even though $16 billion of American taxpayer money has already been disbursed in the Iraq reconstruction program, several government witnesses said at a Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing on Wednesday.
Of seven measures of public services performance presented at the committee hearing by the inspector general's office, only one was above preinvasion values.
Seriously, how on Earth could anyone with any semblance of common sense or decency vote for a President and Administration with such an undeniable record of failure?
