Countdown: KBR Rape, Waterboarding, & Katrina

Olbermann on a nightly basis is trying to keep track of all the Bush scandals so we don’t have to. Last night he highlighted some of the more egregious violations of decency the Bush administration has brought on the public. They include the KBR "gang" rape case, CIA "snuff" tapes, and Hurrican Katrina.

The corps, which constructed the levee system overwhelmed during Hurricane Katrina, received 247 claims and faces nearly 500,000 more for damages and deaths that occurred in the hurricane’s aftermath, USA Today reported Monday.

One personal injury claim seeks $3 quadrillion, about 250 times the U.S. gross domestic product, and another resident in the heavily damaged New Orleans’ Lower 9th Ward is seeking $6 trillion.
