RMF, > You can't spend a Half Trillion a year on a Military and also spend a Half Trillion a year on INTEREST PAYMENTS and expect the rest of the world to FINANCE you forever!!!

I agree, but what about the other two trillion dollars?

Bush and Congress will be spending $3.1 trillion this year. If Hillary or Obama have their way, the budget will be $4 trillion by 2012, paid for by higher taxes going into a recession.

No matter WHOM we elect, we will have to cut back in Iraq.

We just can't AFFORD to have troops everywhere anymore.


Thank you. You may have to repeat that fact several thousand times before they all get it!
