Bush would only need 61 Billion if we (US) had not lost 9 Biliion. Yea 9 Billion is completly unaccounted for. Now I might lose a tweny or something but how do you lose track of this much?

No it just allows greedy Politicians and defense contractors to scam it all from us.

None of the defense contractors I know are making much money off this.
OK some money but no more than usual. Our stockpiles are huge! Remember we spent 1945-1996 getting ready for WWIII.
So I don't know who is making money off of this war.
Now when we pull out....diffent story. All those tanks and hummer have to be rebuilt and that's where your average defence contractor will make a bit of cash

The question is can we NOT afford it. Like Bush said, we're gunna fight 'em there, or we're gunna fight 'em here, either way, we're 'a fightin' 'em. If we don't want to fight 'em here, that's just what it costs to fight 'em there. Yeeehaaa!! Giddeup boys, let's roll!!!

Did you guys hear the latest number?
$22K
That's how much each of us will be in debt to China once jesus h bush is out of office.
$22k! Wow! So assuming some how they pull away $400 of tax benefits from each of us and assuming a low interest rate we will be back where we were 8 years ago in 5 years!
Wow......! Talk about a mess!
Are you guys sure we can't hold little baby bush responsible for this? Some how some way?
