Annals of Outrage

Top ten government scandals (so far) according to the GAO and Inspector Generals office.

Here are the headings.

1. Halliburton's Corruption.
2. Iraq's Decline.
3. Abu Ghraib Prison Torture.
4. The CIA's Pre-9/11 Intelligence Failures.
5. HHS's Deceptive Ad Campaign.
6. HHS's Scully Scandal.
7. Government-wide Accounting Problems.
8. Sex Education Misinformation.
9. CAPPS II's Failures.
10. The Real Costs of War.

Now there's certainly a media slant to this list, and I don't agree with the interpretation of all the facts, but I agree with the jist of the facts.
For example number 4 in my opinion was due to intimidation by the administration and supression of the facts.
