Really? And, what? We're all just totally cool with that? As long as we 'know' that they're corrupt they're just free to go about their obviously corrupt business?

This is the attitude most financial oversight committees took and now look where we are.

Maybe being bitch slapped with a document the size of a Chinese phone book is what it takes to wake people up a little.

What?

I'm not trying to help anything, this has been my stance since before the invasion.

You can't possibly expect a first world government to invade a third world country and not have massive amounts of corruption ensue as they try to prop up people in power who had no initial claim to it.

Just because I am unsurprised by the situation doesn't mean I am begrudgingly accepting of it.

I've never been cool with it, which is why I have been, and will continue to be, a staunch advocate of a unilateral withdrawal of Canadian troops from what is so obviously a banana republic building session.

Now that you know things are corrupt, what exactly do you plan on doing about it?
