We don't need schools . We Need more Weapons!
 

"The House overwhelmingly passed a $422 billion defense bill Thursday that would include more money for fighting in Iraq, expand current troop levels and protect military bases from closure for at least three years."


$422 billion...
and some peanuts for education, health and other useless stuff

there goes your money... :2 cents:

Not my money thankfully. :glugglug

Damn, the government should be thinking rationally.

What he said.

$422bil?

you mean

$422,000,000,000.00

:glugglug

Fuck bush and his staff. Every damn american better get there ass out there and vote this stupid son of a bitch out before he is the down fall of this country.

Damn, that's why the country's going through some fucked up problem.

That's what Republicans do, spend every dime possible on defense and then loose wars to prove that they have to keep spending more. I don't know if it's a plan or if they're just to stupid to win wars, but that's what they do.

oh yeah... thats alot

That sucks:(

i guess they could just buy slingshots on ebay instead

The election showed that the PEOPLE didnt vote for that cocksucker.

Most of us dont agree with the expenditure either.

no one seems to care..its ashame

yep.. a guy here posted that they closed a school in his area.. because they need the money for war etc... thats just stupid

Wow, it is a lot of money.

In America? No no no.

:thumbsup

shesh..

wow that's way too much.. are they even thinking ?

i dont think so... maybe they want to raise a stupid nation.. stupid ppl are better to manipulate :2 cents:

I know you are busy hating Bush and all but if you read it again it says....


"The House overwhelmingly passed a $422 billion defense bill "

Overwelmingly meaning a large majority that included both Republicans and Democrats.

Our defense budget is more than that of the next 20 nations' defense budget combined...

Yeah that makes a lot of sense moron :thumbsup

:thumbsup

in the l.a. area, a lot of elementary schools lost their music and art programs - and three emergency rooms have been shut down, including my favorite one.

maybe we could spend our money better here than fighting elsewhere... our education was already down the tubes, and our jobless problem is pretty critical.

besides, a lot of these billions come from loans, in effect. after bush has long since left office, we'll have to pay them back with interest... while we are jobless and undereducated :-(

you think republicans are the only ones who waste money? :1orglaugh
it doesnt matter who the president is, he'll always find a way to throw it down the shitter. if not on war, on something else in an attempt to win votes. gray davis, although only the governor of california showed how this game is played. if kerry is elected, im sure the debt will go down. we'll be paying %25 more in taxes, but the debt will go down. :1orglaugh

You know what's funny? People actually vote for the guy who's gonna steal from them :)

yeah, thats what people who vote do. they vote for politicians. you think bush is the only one? :1orglaugh
