Give Iraq more money so they can buy F-16s from us and help our deficit. My stomach aches. BTW this Iraq controversy has happened at a very interesting time. There's a multi-billion dollar US national missile defense program that needs plus-up funding and the cost is in excess of the money set aside for it. Very interesting timing.

off topic bearded one: Friday was the last day of congress for the year. Several expensive defensive weapons bills were passed and several key defense staffer nominations were chosen. Perhaps it's not a coincidence that everybody stopped picking on Saddam after Friday. It's hard to justify weapons development without a threat.
