$2.7 Billion will be spent on the wars THIS WEEK!!
$16 Million dollars every damn hour, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week!

And in July, we have had 39 Americans lose their life, with 14 days still left in July.

Do you feel safer? Is Al-Qaeda thinking about leaving Afghanistan because of our presence?

If we leave now, or 5 years from now, will the gains we make be worth another Trillion dollars? And maybe 3000 more Americans dead?

I really feel that every month these wars continue, we are telling George W. Bush that he was correct to start them and that they are necessary!

And that is reason enough to end them!!

1. I'm sure that's only the official number, not the actual...
We all know when it comes to tax dollars and the unemployed there's the official numbers and the actual numbers which are typically twice as much.

I think we're even being lied to about how high the actual national debt is and about how "affordable" health care will be for everyone.

We MUST go after this bitch.
