Does this mean we are significantly under budget for the war? Seems hard to believe because we detonated so many bombs in iraq. I thought we had 70 billion to spend for the month, and we were there about a month. The Pentagon has spent more than $20 billion so far in the war against Iraq and expects to spend at least $10 billion more by the end of September, a senior official said Wednesday. Zakheim was explaining how the Pentagon will use the $62.6 billion Congress has approved in supplemental spending over the Pentagon's $364 billion for the fiscal year that ends Sept. 30. Nearly all the new money is for the war in Iraq and the global war on terror. sfgate.com sounds to me like we've got some extra money and we should reel it back in.
