Kate O'Beirne's husband Jim was in charge of the Pentagon office staffing the Iraq reconstruction with Bush loyalists rather than based on competence:

"O'Beirne's staff posed blunt questions to some candidates about domestic politics: Did you vote for George W. Bush in 2000? Do you support the way the president is fighting the war on terror? Two people who sought jobs with the U.S. occupation authority said they were even asked their views on Roe v. Wade.

"Many of those chosen by O'Beirne's office to work for the Coalition Provisional Authority, which ran Iraq's government from April 2003 to June 2004, lacked vital skills and experience. A 24-year-old who had never worked in finance -- but had applied for a White House job -- was sent to reopen Baghdad's stock exchange. The daughter of a prominent neoconservative commentator and a recent graduate from an evangelical university for home- schooled children were tapped to manage Iraq's $13 billion budget, even though they didn't have a background in accounting.

"The decision to send the loyal and the willing instead of the best and the brightest is now regarded by many people involved in the 3 1/2 -year effort to stabilize and rebuild Iraq as one of the Bush administration's gravest errors. Many of those selected because of their political fidelity spent their time trying to impose a conservative agenda on the postwar occupation, which sidetracked more important reconstruction efforts and squandered goodwill among the Iraqi people, according to many people who participated in the reconstruction effort."

staffing the Iraq reconstruction

I wasn't aware of that one. At the beginning of the Iraq invasion, MSM reported on 20-something year olds, the nieces and nephews of Bush loyalists, in charge of millions of dollars of reconstruction $$. Who knows what they did with it?
