Yeah, but you see, there aren’t any screaming children, no body parts cartwheeling through the air, no AYRABS burning to death in shot-up cars. You see when you need to kill others to feel good about yourself, Jeremy, your plan is just one hell of a bummer. Lift people up instead of blowing them to bits? WASTE OF TIME.

Sorry about the bold, I must have missed a closing tag somewhere.

WHen I read that it took something like 3.7bln to keep the troops in iraq for one WEEK, according to UL, I stopped, and I stared at the number. If this number is true, this is all the reason I need to call for us out of Iraq YESTERDAY.

3.7 bln per week.

At 80,000 per student for a typical 4 year public university, you could put 46,250 students through school for the cost of one week in Iraq.

At $50,000 per year per family, you could pay a decent living wage to 74,000 families for the cost of one week in Iraq.

At $26,000 per year for our budget, you could pay for our expenses and one hundred fourty two thousandthree hundred six other families like us! All for the cost of one week(!!!) in Iraq!

You could give over $3000 a week to every man, woman, and child in the city of Denver every week for the cost of fighting in Iraq.

If you ended the war right now, you could refund $641 per year to every man, woman, and child in America. $641 tax refund for you, your wife, and each child in your family.

THANK YOU, Usual Leftist, for showing in stark terms what a massive money sink this war is. Think about it. $3.7bln. PER WEEK. You could have a lottery where a MILLION winners took home $3700 for that gawd-awful number.

I couldn’t have sunk the Iraq war better if I tried!

Usual Leftist. Another reptard bilge-rat with a rhetorical gimmick who’ll post a zillion comments and say nothing at all.

shit, take all the money from the DOD, let the “secretary” have bake sales. There’s enough left ot get the troops home, where everybody wants them. the DOD needs no more money, they threw away what they had.

My question is why after 4 years of this war/occupation are we still funding it with emergency funding bills? Isn’t it time for Bush/DOD to put this in the budget?

That drop in DOD funding hits a little too close to psyops home for some of our resident troll(s) methinks…

Bravo to Leahy and Feingold, but Feinstein, Schumer, and Lieberman will jump ship in full Senate vote probably or Bush will veto it anyways. I wish I could be more optimistic, but Dems caving in DC happens all the time.

Probably this time as â€œfrancieâ€.

I think “Vichy France-ee”, as I like to call it, may be verboten as well. Methinks that TP is trying to exercise more control during their “pledge drive”. They can’t be pissing off potential donors.

I think the UL troll has been extirpated, I hope. If so; IT’S ABOUT TIME!
I, almost, look forward to it’s reappearance under another name so it can be slapped down again.

I don’t live in Wisconsin, but I used to get my T.V. from there. I remember when Russ first ran for office. He said that he intended to be “the conscience of the Senate”. I think he has exceeded his promise and expectations. He’s one of the best people in politics. Possibly the best period!

No telecom immunity. That’s the rule of law, right people?

Give him some slack, V; he hasn’t replied because those pesky adult diapers are so hard to correctly position. He’ll be back after his Depends break.

Leftist: It’s clear that you failed the 8th grade grammar level. It’s “whom”…..remember that…..fire whomever we want. And, for the record spelling was not your forte either evidently – whoever/whomever are not two words. What country were your educated in BTW? Clearly, you’re foreign to this one and may come from the 7th planet – you know, Ur-anus??

“What, a Republican used a detail to conflate it into an unrelated conclusion? THE SHOCK! ;)”

Comment by republicans hate facts

True; he never admitted being wrong – another republican trait.
