Ok, of the 18 billion appropriated for reconstruction was 1.7 billion even spent, in terms of the US taxpayers contribution? All things considered - 6 billion redirected towards security costs and say 70-90% of the remaining, for all the data I've seen, lost to various forms of graft - he seems to have been right in the ballpark. He's probably only guilty of not accounting for how high the overhead on spending 1.7 billion on reconstruction would be. An understandable mistake, I think. :P
