No Real News Here

Does anyone with a functioning brain really thing Bu$hCo can do anything right. This fiasco is one more reason to impeach the worst president ever. I'm glad the Taliban is gone, but what plan, if any, could be this screwed up - "design faults" & "construction errors"? Who's designing & who's constructing? Cronies of Bu$hCo? I know, don't answer that question. Good use of our tax money.

"In September 2002, nearly a year after an American-led coalition deposed the Taliban, the United States launched what would become an aggressive effort to build or refurbish as many as 1,000 schools and clinics by the end of 2004, documents show. However, design flaws and construction errors caused the initiative to fall far short.

By September 2004, congressional figures show that the effort's centerpiece -- a $73 million U.S. Agency for International Development program -- had produced only 100 finished projects, most of them refurbishments of existing buildings. As of the beginning of this month, only about 40 more had been finished and turned over to the Afghan government."
