Opening two graphs of the story:
WASHINGTON - Senate Republicans and Democrats on Wednesday denounced the Bush administration's slow progress in rebuilding Iraq, saying the risks of failure are great if it doesn't act with greater urgency.
"It's beyond pitiful, it's beyond embarrassing, it's now in the zone of dangerous," said Sen. Chuck Hagel R-Neb., referring to figures showing only about 6 percent of the reconstruction money approved by Congress last year has been spent.
Lugar piles on later in the article:
But the criticism from the panel's top Republicans had an extra sting coming less than seven weeks before the presidential election in which President Bush (news - web sites)'s handling of the war is a top issue.
"Our committee heard blindly optimistic people from the administration prior to the war and people outside the administration -- what I call the 'dancing in the street crowd,' that we just simply will be greeted with open arms," Lugar said. "The nonsense of all of that is apparent. The lack of planning is apparent."
He said the need to shift the reconstruction funds was clear in July, but the administration was slow to make the request.
"This is an extraordinary, ineffective administrative procedure. It is exasperating from anybody looking at this from any vantage point," he said.
