RE: What Did the War Cost

Michele B wants to elminate Iran's threat. Can you imagine that if she won this Race for 2013, the amount of spending and consumption people would do before she takes office and bombs Iran. Of course there wouldn't be much production-what's the point in a doomsday scenario. evileye

When you've argued (you in the sense of a political clique) that spending on the Iraq war was causative to the depression, and that spending near a trillion dollars on grooming your voter base has had any other effect than maintaining a miserable status quo, you've pretty much affirmed an abiding respect for the Nancy Pelosi school of economics.

Last seen, the House minority leader (lol) was still wandering around talking about the multiplier effect of unemployment spending.

Forget all about it. confuse

Souix City debates (12/15/2011). Michele B. Said that Iran intends to Nuke (nuc-nuc) Israel and USA. She strongly implied that we oughta do a first strike, [ just like we did to Saddam. ]

Sure hope no one has a doomsday weapon, Q Bomb. USA, USSR and Japan had nuclear accidents that came close to being Doomsday, and they were all trying to avoid that scenario. evileye

We still had the depression. It would have been over quicker if we had not wasted $787 billion. The least they could have done is try to spend the money on things that would actually stimulate the economy instead of worthless stuff like high speed rail that isn't high speed at all.

Obama and the dems spent $787 billion right when they walked in the door. They did not even need to have a war to waste that much money.

Our poor children and grand children.
