"he would be far better off with 30,000 more schools than 30,000 more troops" Not that I disagree with the philosophy, but if he built 30K schools there and not here, he'd be total toast. Like or or not, we'll almost always, until like after spending 35 years in Nam, vote money for war. We'd never stand still for spending that much overseas for peace, especially in tough times. Especially when we won't do it here. I can see it now..."Told ya Obama is Moslem; he just built 30K Madrasses to take over the world". If we can't afford schools, how can we afford guns? Simple...different budgets. You take it from a "build more subs" program or something. What's 30 B moved around within the Pentagon? Who's got a better plan? Spike the guns and hop on the planes B4 Xmas? Should we tell NATO, or just sneak out like the Baltimore Colts sneaking out to Indiana? Ha,ha, fooled y'all. If we leave Friday night, maybe nobody will notice until Monday. "Surge troops and bribe everybody in sight" worked once; maybe it'll work again. Gonna be a long 18 months.
