Pelosi : on missing U.S. Weapons in Iraq
http://democraticleader.house.gov

"Secretary of Defense Rumsfeld had no plan for securing supplies of Iraqi weapons and ammunition when the war began, and it now appears that he has no plan for ensuring that thousands of weapons the U.S. provides for the Iraqi security force's do not wind up being used against American troops. With 100 American troops killed thus far in October , and thousands more caught in the middle of escalating sectarian violence , that is unacceptable. Our troops deserve far better."

"House Republicans leaders, who have conducted no meaningful oversight of the conduct of the Iraq war, must explain how the revelation that our troops are in evan more danger from untracked weapons squares with their appalling assessment of Secretary Rumsfeld as the 'the best thing to happen to the Pentagon in 25 years.'

"It is long past time for a new direction in Iraq"

3. Gee, I wonder if the shipments got misdirected ... just in time for
the "ballot box revolution" 11/7/2006 ...

11/8/2006, we might just start finding out where those weapons went ... into the hands of some rabid RWers ...
