Dubyette is CHARGING Americans to flee the war zone. I heard they were forced to sign notes promising to pay before they were boarded. Next time they'll have Diebold ATM machines so people can pay up front. "Another controversy ignited in Washington over plans to charge U.S. citizens for the cost of the evacuation. The White House defended asking Americans to reimburse the estimated $150 cost of their passage, but Democrats said it was unconscionable to charge people in such distress. Last night, aides to two Republican senators told CNN the fees would be waived." newsday.com
