Diversion of funds to Florida.
Advertisements [?]
The recent publicity about the illegality of diverting appropriated funds reminded me of another incident. Last year, $8.5 Million was diverted from the $87Billion that was appropriated for the Occupation of Iraq. The $8.5 Million was diverted to Jeb bush in Florida who used it to suppress the protests at the WTO meeting.

I've been pissed since I learned about this funding for the Florida Police State. I know very little about legalities involved, but this seems like the same thing to me.

Can anybody supply clarification on this issue.
