Either very big hands or very big apples

Federal investigators are reviewing 6 billion (that's 6,000,000,000) USD of contracts related to Iraq and Afghanistan for possible criminal misconduct and corruption but we needn't worry according to witnesses from the military and the Pentagon who appeared before the House Armed Services Committee yesterday. They assure us that this teensy, wheensy problem has been caused by a handful of "bad apples" and is not indicative of systemic corruption and failure. And I believe them!
