From Crooks and Liars:
NBC's Jim Miklaszewski reports on how the Bush administration pays the Pakistani government $1 billion a year to hunt down Osama bin Laden, and demands zero accountability as to how that money is spent.
So if I understand this correctly, we are paying Musharraf $1 billion a year to strike immunity deals with the warlords thought to be harboring this man we're paying him to catch? This is appalling on so many levels. Given the huge sum of money we're paying this man to implement policies that are counterproductive to our national security and yield few results, how can we possibly consider him our "strong friend and ally"?

One Billion dollars and no accountibility? The Gerbil needs to be held accountable to the American people.
The Gerbil is stupid. He outsources the Bin Laden hunt and then declassified information regarding Al-Queda! All that wasted money from an incompetent leader. It's impeachment time.
