what difference does that make?

The real point is, that without such legislation, all one would have to do is allege misconduct in order to stop funding for a program.

And even if someone within the organization is found guilty of charges, the appropriate action would be to discipline the transgressors, not necessarily cut the entire program.

If an individual in, say, The Pentagon, were to do something illegal, say...oh...charge $1000 for a toilet seat, and were that person found guilty after due process...what would be the appropriate action:

1. Stop funding for all defense as soon as the indictment is brought?

2. Discipline the individual(s) who were found guilty?

3. Shut down The Pentagon if someone within were found guilty?
