White House, Hill Raided Millions from Anti-Bioterrorism Fund

White House, Hill Raided Millions from Anti-Bioterrorism Fund:
"Congress and the Obama White House looked for billions of dollars a few years ago to offset the costs of a legal settlement with black farmers and American Indians,  to increase education aid to the states and to develop a vaccine for swine flu.
To get those billions, they looked to the same coffer:
Project BioShield, a $5.6 billion fund created specifically to prepare America for a bioterrorist attack and develop treatments for deadly viruses such as Ebola.
Sen. Richard Burr, R-N.C., warned that the BioShield fund was not supposed to be raided as a source of “Monopoly money for politicians.”"
