1. Yeah, 1 trillion is a lot more than nothing.

Remember, this war was going to be a freebie. "The Iraqi people will pay for it." Man, they sure have, haven't they? I am so ashamed of my government.

2. Yes, $1,000,000,000,000 is a little higher than 1.9 billion dollars

Remember those estimates?

"It'll pay for itself!"

Rummy, you drunken, stupid, idiotic prep-school fuck, I hope you burn in Hell.

7. If a contractor gave you an estimate for $2000 for a job

Then he presented you with a bill for $1,000,000 as the work progressed, would you not fire his ass on the spot?

WHy isn't the President being held to this same standard?
