Washington lawmakers have reacted with shock at the discovery that an obscure clause in a military spending bill will terminate the work of the auditor. The Office of the Special Inspector General for Iraq Reconstruction has embarrassed the US administration with its reports on corrupt practices. Critics of the government claim this is what lies behind its sudden closure. Yeah, right. The Republican's put the clause in, and are then shocked to find it there. Time for the Republican's to get shown the door in both houses. /Bevin Quote
