Has anyone brought up the COST OF THE WARS to our economy.
It is a subject not broached as to what the two illegal wars have wrought in terms of our country.... forget the deaths.

If we would cut back on military spending and bring troops home and just pay what the cost will be to those veterans without limbs and mental disorders that would be
tremendous. But to keep the number of troops we do all over the world in every country drains us tremendously.

AND last night I heard that troops will not be home from Iraq until 2013. I don't know what president will get our troops out of there but let's not forget the cost to the budget which continually gets ignored as we bicker with Social Security and Medicare.

Any nation that cannot take care of it's people is not
a democracy. Democratic means caring for everyone but that gets taken as socialism... propagated full time by FOX
commentators who by the way make MILLIONS of dollars.

Do they have a vested interested in extending the tax cuts
do you think ?
