Iraq Reconstruction – C’mon – You Gotta Laugh…

Well, you may or may not know about Harper’s Index – if you don’t – here’s a description from the Harper’s Magazine site:

“Each month, the Harper’s Index provides a statistical snapshot of the world’s economic, political, and cultural climate. The Harper’s Index is published to Harpers.org one month after print publication.”

So why do I mention it? Well, I just found this little nugget over there – in the September 2004 Index:

“Funds allocated for Iraq’s water programs to be spent on U.S. embassy operating costs : $85,500,000”

Yup. More selfless Iraqi Reconstruction.

Thank God For America.
