The figure, thus far, has more in the range of $25B. Bush has put in a request for an initial funding of $75 billion for this war. Are you saying the president is lying? The request was developed before Saddam's regime was toppled. The impression I got is that this request was a first step, minimal allocation. Trillion Dollar? Huh? Some estimates where that high. They included all indirect expenses not just the direct cost of the war. They also included supposed negative economic effects and anticipated a war that dragged on for many months with thousands of US casualties. Ray acted as if I made the claim of one trillion. That's what I was reacting to. ted Tim
