So you are saying that you are better than a Nobel prize-winning economist Hawk??

When he's publishing estimates based solely upon the last three years of activities to predict overall costs for the future, I'd saying that he's trying to politicize...

Because I could claim that the war is going to cost $6 Trillion dollars by 2020, were I willing to make a prediction out to THAT particular timeframe.

His prediction, and mine, rely squarely upon there being no change in personnel deployments in Iraq over the specified timeframes. And I don't see that being a reasonable variable.

Thus, he's politicized his research.
