A whistler blower has told the Army Inspector General of a practice by Rumsfeld's favorite operation in the Defense Department that allowed 20 million unappropriated dollars to be secretly padded into its budget. The method was for some unrelated military department to spread the millions around in its budget request so it wouldn't be noticed--the term is "parked" there--for later use by Special Ops.
This violates at least two federal statutes. A Congressman has said that he will question Rumsfeld about the practice, which is apparently common, when he testifies in front of a House committee on Tuesday.
Details here.
