Say you are the President, and you want to invade a country because their dictator just nuked America or something evil like that.
He had 200 000 troops and your advisors were all like, we need at least 2 million to take it. We'll have about 300 000 casualties.
If each troop costs $100/5 months, then you must pay $200 000 000 over a five month period to do this. But you don't have any money. You have $0.
Naturally, you can't go to war, according to liberals, otherwise we're talking debt. So no war.
BUT
What if we have the money. Then, liberals would want war. So -
Conclusion: Liberals reduce troops to dollar signs when they try to criticize George Bush. This, of course, is intolerable, and an outrage.
Can ANYONE answer to this? I asked my former social studies prof and he told me I was "ahead of my time." He said he'd get back to me but has not yet, so here I am.

quote: Bush has asked congress for one 125 billion dollar procurement for the war, then 87 billion more, and even with war costs higher than expected, the most the US has spent in Iraq since before we invaded is about 350 billion.
The first Bush tax cut cost the state over 1 trillion. |

The tax breaks STIMULATED THE ECONOMY! That means it really didn't set us back a trillion anything, much less a trillion dollars. The war in Iraq was really, truly, out of Bush's pocket.
JohnT, then change it into something less serious for all I care. The analysis still holds!
Gepap, Yes, old people tend to be veterans (or rather, reverse it). This make shock you, but it is true. I am not ignorant for stating the sky is blue, and then using that solid logic to reinforce my claim that the TROOPS need the cash NOT THE VETERANS!

Indeed. Someone must've hacked his account; I don't think even Wiggums could be this dumb on purpose.
