U.S. Embassy Construction in Iraq

The massive U.S. embassy under construction in Baghdad could cost $144 million more than projected $592 million and will open months behind schedule because of poor planning, shoddy workmanship, internal disputes and last-minute changes sought by State Department officials.  Thats about $2.45 from every man woman and child in the US. thats for ONE project.

In a country without reliable water, food, security, etc…   should this REALLY be such a high priority and bill?
