Congressional Oversight AWOL

RECEIVED Tue., Sept. 11, 2007

Dear Editor,
    The Sept. 9 issue of Rolling Stone magazine has an article by Matt Taibbi entitled "The Great Iraq Swindle."
    In it Taibbi colorfully exposes the theft of tens of billions of U.S. taxpayers dollars by private contractors like Halliburton and KBR, administration corporate cronies, and Pentagon pals. Maybe people who read it can do as I did and send a letter, e-mail, or fax to their congressperson demanding the oversight that seems to have been absent without leave for the last six years, or has it been 60?
