Poll question: Is Bush lying about the 87 billion to fix Iraq?
Why not he's lied about everything else. How much will we pour into Iraq before we get our asses handed to us and we fly out of there in the middle of the night?

2. Much like all the economic shell games going on right now.
This figure is just one more tom foolery this admin is pulling on us. Do you think that he would come out and tell the truth?

5. I believe Bush will do whatever it takes
And whatever is necessary to see that Haliburton gets every penny it can from the American people.

6. I heard three Repubs say at different times tonight...
..that the damage done in the war was "minimal"? So what is the money to be used for? Good question.

7. "minimal"????

They were dropping clusterbombs, bunkerbusters and DU rounds in residential areas. Also don't forget about the 50 million dollar gouging for a 300,000 dollar bridge.

9. I voted for 400 B
Because I think this country will not stand for any more, if we even stand for it at 87 B. It's time to start writing folks. Loosen up those fingers.

10. Bremer said $100 billion
Just a couple of days ago, so yeah, he's lieing. I figure $800 billion before we get out of there. IF we get a Democratic President to bring some sanity to the situation. Otherwise... fuck it, just buy a tent, get some dried beans and head for the river. This country will be bankrupt with Bush's war plans.
