"Good gosh, do you have any concept how many wind turbines we could subsidize if we weren't spending that money in Iraq? "

Good gosh - do you realize how useless that investment would be?

Do you know how many turbines we could build with the money we'd save if we eliminated the counter productive Department of Education?

And who is paying for the subsidies to the oil companies to secure their investment in the ME?
