Scott... no sense in getting all flustered just because your don't remember the specifics of what I posted (& what *you* posted....)

(HINT: At one time I DID post an informative example explaining 'just how many years it would take to pay off the debts our country has incurred thus far in the financing of the war in Iraq' --- using the rhetorical example of HOW MANY YEARS it would take to pay off, if we paid one million dollars a day until the debt was paid off. Of COURSE, that has NOTHING to do with what we are ACTUALLY SPENDING each day in Iraq now, and going forward. I was referring to PAYING OFF CURRENT DEBT at the rate of one million a day... NOT how FAST WE ARE ACTUALLY RUNNING UP WAR DEBTS. That seems to be the area where you have gotten confused. It should be clear to anyone, though, that those are very *different matters*.)

FYI --- CURRENTLY, we are SPENDING GREATER then FIVE BILLION DOLLARS per MONTH on the War in Iraq. That breaks down to just about $7 MILLION per HOUR ($6,944,444., *not* "one million a day" like you incorrectly claimed.) ...About $166 million per day.
