Al, > Saving SS is no problem at all....putting aside the human tragedy, the war in Iraq will cost us more than $2Trillion.

Whoops, yet another liberal who doesn't bother to check his statistics:

zfacts.com

$442 billion is a lot, but it's nowhere near $2 trillion. Compare that to SS benefits, which is already at $500 billion per year and growing.

We'll be out of Iraq sooner or later, but Hillary-care will put a permanent drag on the American economy and will arguably decrease the quality of health care we receive here.

Now I'll wait while you:

a) Bring up the "hidden costs" of the Iraq war.

b) Pretend that things can't possibly get worse than W.
