Misappropriation of funds!

How 2 Months Spending in Iraq Could Be Put to Better Use

"The President is trying to masquerade as fiscally responsible by
manufacturing a fight over $22 billion (roughly 2 months in Iraq) in
investments that will make this a stronger and better country."

Why is it that when we need funds to do something for the United
States of America and its people we can never find it but we're able
to spend $11B a month on a sand pit and its people that virtually will
never do us any good. If we got just one months of this budget LLNL
would be rolling in $ doe $, we'd still have our UCRP pension plan,
probably still be under UC and have more work to do then we had
people. What a total waste of my tax dollars. Now there's something
for the general public to bitch about. This is truly a case of
misappropriation of funds.

LANL headlines...

budget in limbo! how competent is our congress?


LANL HEADLINES

Creative bookkeeping and balancing of the budget

I will be totally amazed if 900 people is all that LLNL has to cut
between now and Oct 1st, 2008. If getting rid of 900 people can
account for $300M dollars then each person much cost an awful lot to
the programs. I'd sure like to see the expense breakdown on how they
justify this cost and who they are since each of us cost a different
amount. Would you like to bet ULM sucks up most of LLNL budget and yet
they are untouchable.. Not logical in my books.

A message to B. Mason

It looks like llnlthetruestory is coming alive. The article worked wonders. Now you may even get some good input. I wish you the best. Stay tuned to http://llnlthetruestory.blogspot.com/ Maybe making contact with jlscoob5@aol.com will help. He or she is the owner and it's my hopes they are more successful than the others. In the meantime please look into this:

It looks like management will do anything to stop the truth from getting out. Check out who snooping for answers http://lanl-the-rest-of-the-story.blogspot.com/2007/12/vultures-are-circling.html

Outsourcing America

So ULM still denies that anything at LLNL is going to be outsourced. Do the people of LLNL understand what Russo's job is and has been for years. Just watch everything under his command get axed. Do you think we can catch ULM in another lie same as we did with the information given to use during the transitions that made people think everything was going to be the same. NOT !

Contra Costa Times article raises questions!

Contributed anonymously:

After reading the Contra Costa Times article, I still have questions.

Lab directorGeorge Miller's salary was bumped $19,600 to $410,000, director of science and technology Cherry Murray's salary stayed at $337,000 and National Ignition Facility head Ed Moses' pay rose $18,000 to $330,000. And just like the rest of the employees, those raises have not yet gone into effect.

And as for the managers who came in from Bechtel and the other managing companies, Miller said, "They are in the same salary structure as the rest of the laboratory."

Does this mean $410,000, $337,000 or $330,000, who knows. You did notice they didn't give that information and having seen the attached official document of what the fanatsy four of LANL got I find it hard to believe that this ULM didn't get the same. I think it took almost a years to find out the FF's salary.
