$190,000,000,000.00 for war?

[kid a]

wow...

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

1. That extra $42 billion will be available to cover Bush's Iran interlude

How else one explain the fact they are asking for far more money than last year?

[jimshoes]

2. I thought the oil revenues

were going to pay for this war. I must have heard wrong.

3. $190 billion dollars MORE to fund corporations like Blackwater.....

whom the fascist Bush adores... A privatized army of killers with no oversight!

As these republican multi-national corporations rake in billions of dollars every time congress approves more war spending....another 190 billion dollars more they want.... they lie and say it's for the troops.... Bullshit... most of all the money spent in the past five years on this Iraqi occupation goes to the same republican donating corporations like BLACKWATER, LOCKHEED-MARTIN, ALLIANT TECHSYSTEMS, HALLIBURTON, KELLOGG BROWN & ROOT, BWX TECHNOLOGIES, GENERAL ELECTRIC, BECHTEL, NORTHROP GRUMMAN, RAYTHEON, THE BOEING COMPANY, GENERAL DYNAMICS, BAE SYSTEMS INC.

War for profit!

While oil corporations like EXXON & the rest, are stealing billions in unmetered Iraq oil & claiming the rights to future exploitation...trillions of dollars more for them, as they also shamelessly gouge us every day at the pump for even more profits...

Of course BushCo never wants the never ending imperialistic wars for profit to end.

4. Screw the hungry children!

We've got people to kill.

5. Just one of those zeroes could feed that kid's village for a month.

6. People are losing their homes, and they want

Probably about $2,0000 from every family in America, just for one year. That's some way of protecting us.
