Your ciphering is off.. the Iraq war cost 2 trillion+ if you add in all of the medical costs for the wounder soldiers and the prerequisite medical care they will be entitled to in their lifetime...

Except that instead of over 50+ years, it's 1 year.

Once again you assume, never supported the medical bill one way or another... remain undecided and ambivalent, waiting for the hysteria to die down...

That makes it more palpable... either way we will never know how much the Iraq fiasco costs, as there are so many diverted and hidden costs associated with this action...

I think you might be getting your billions and trillions mixed up.

How can we expect Golden Boy to end a war when he can't even close a little jail house (Gitmo)

Remember all the blubbering that went on over Gitmo when Bush was around, now it has all been forgotten.

GET BUSH---GET BUSH

HEY HUSSEIN, WHEN ARE YOU CLOSING GITMO
