Funny how we can figure out a billion a week for war in Iraq, but, cant figure out how to help the average American citizen health coverage or help the average small business have some stability at home in these rather bleak financial times.
Stop occupying foreign countries that aren?t interested in having us there firstly looking for leaders that have vanished. Start taking care of your own people here.
How many more American soldiers have to die before we decide that enough is enough?

Good Points. Washington is just the ultimate homeowner's association gone wrong. The accountability is so all over the place you can't even pin it down anymore. Mirrors, mirrors everywhere you look.
I was reading today we're paying garbage contractors in Iraq $3 per cleaner per day. 25,000 of them. Only thing is the contractors are scooping up the $75,000 a day and hiring kids as young as 8 to be the garbagemen and paying them $1.50 a day and they're pocketing the other $1.50. So the contractors are yanking $1 Million a month and doing zilch.
Rebuilding Iraq the American Way. Yep we sure are.
