Does anyone remember ever hearing about what happened to the 2.3 trillion?http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2002/...in325985.shtml
I know a lot of people died the following day, but does that make it ok that 2.3 trillion is still missing, and we never got an answer?

For the life of me I can't figure out how 2.3 trillion just disappears. I can't come up with any reasonable excuse that justifies that big of an accounting error to be acceptable. Call me crazy, and you definitely won't be the first to do so. I just can't see losing numbers that are that long without any idea where it went?

That is strange. Are you sure that's the exact date that it came to light, though?

Not sure what you're talking about. This is the first that I heard of it. All I can remember is about two weeks before the 9/11 attacks, my highschool government teacher telling us how nobody would dare attack Americans on U.S. soil. Most fucked up coincidence I've ever experienced.

He didn't say anything. What happened the following day has still been on the news for 8 years so they haven't had a chance to get back to it yet.

That's what happens with a President gives his Sec of Defense free reign. Rummy was quite possibly the worst Sec Def in US history.
