The Oversight Committee holds a hearing, "Allegations of Waste, Fraud, and Abuse at the New U.S. Embassy in Iraq." The hearing examines the performance of the State Department and its contractors in the construction of the new $600 million U.S. embassy in Baghdad. The Committee reviews questions regarding the embassy compound construction as well as allegations of labor abuse through improper contracting practices. Rep. Elijah Cummings questions Karl Demming of KBR about what they found at the embassy. Delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton questions Karl Demming of KBR about photographs showing shoddy and dangerous electrical work at the embassy.
It's really annoying that the woman, Ms. Norton, has no idea what he's talking about.

I weep for our once great nation.

Great, we're building $600mil embassy, and all the while, its being done more shoddily than a McDonald's!
Just perfect.
