US Spending on Iraq, Afghanistan Will Hit 1.6 Trillion

If this doesn't piss you off then I don't know what will?

The cost of this war, in lives and in money, is unconscionable
especially while at the same time Bush is sustaining tax cuts that
overwhelmingly go the richest people in this country, while the
poorest people are sent off the fight the war. If this is not an
oligarchy of the highest order then I don't know what is!

Also, he vetoed a 6 billion dollar spending bill that would increase
funding to health and education programs while passing a $40 billion
increase in non-war pentagon budget! WHAT!!???

I am angry! How bout you?

-peace-
