1.6 TRILLION

The number of stars in the Universe?

The number of grains of sand on all the beaches of earth?

The number of Mexicans wanting to sneak into the United States?

Nooooooooooooooo...

That's the latest estimate of what the Bush wars are costing us to date. One point six trillion dollars. This estimate includes things that Bush and his cronies refuse to discuss or admit to, things like:

-1)The interest on the money being borrowed to conduct these wars.

-2)The cost of medical assistance and treatment to veterans.

-3)The cost to replace all the destroyed equipment.

The fact is... if Bush couldn't borrow money from places like communist China, he couldn't be the war monger he is... we would be at peace with every Muslim nation on earth, except for Afghanistan, a war we can afford and should have already won, but sadly that that damned puppet Bush re-directed most of our war effort to Iraq in order to secure an estimated 30 trillion dollar oil supply for the benefit of the international corporations. Spread democracy my ass... it's all for the oil.

Seems to me it's obvious. If we don't have the money on hand to fight a war - particularly an unnecessary war with a nation that was absolutely no threat to the security of the United States - we shouldn't be fighting it, no matter who thinks we should be, especially the Israelis, who have lost nothing in this war, but have promoted it from day one.

I agree with what you've stated, but I want to be sure your reasons for saying it were right:
Can you promise me that after HITLERyClit is s-elected, you won't be screaming for U.S. to invade Darfur?
Please!?

Galt, are you nuts?

Where in hell did you get the idea that I think invading other soverign nations is a good thing?

I want the U.S. OUT of other nation's business. I want our troops home protecting our own borders and citizens.

We have troops in over eighty nations around this globe. That's just plain nuts. Other than a few marine guards at embassies, the rest should be back here where they belong.

And as far as Darfur, they can sink or swin on their own, I care not which.

And as for Bush's "pre-emptive" wars, he can go to hell in a handbasket and take that idea with him.
