Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld. Derelict in their duty.

Christy Hardin Smith at FireDogLake:

With one hundred US soldiers killed in Iraq this month alone and counting, how many of those deaths came with a bullet or a bomb put together with US ammo that we never bothered to track or account for once we handed it over to an Iraqi police and military force that we knew was rife with insurgents?

The answers came Sunday from the inspector general’s office, which found major discrepancies in American military records on where thousands of 9-millimeter pistols and hundreds of assault rifles and other weapons have ended up. The American military did not even take the elementary step of recording the serial numbers of nearly half a million weapons provided to Iraqis, the inspector general found, making it impossible to track or identify any that might be in the wrong hands.[...]

Isn't it time that George Bush and Donald Rumsfeld and all of the rubber stamp Republicans in Congress were held accountable for their utter dereliction of duty? For the sake of every American soldier who is still fighting in Iraq…isn't it time?
