How come no one is talking about the reality that the war in Iraq and Afghanistan which was projected to cost 60 billion is now coming in at a cumulative 600-800 billion dollars in hard costs to say nothing of the projected 2.2 trillion more dollars in costs of caring for wounded, cost to rebuild the military and equipment used, cost of Veteran claims and other costs. That's 60 billion turning into 3 trillion. That is 50 times more then the costs the administration said. 50 times. It is hard for an average person to even conceive of what 3.0 trillion dollars can buy but suffice to say it could solve Social Security, our foreign debt, buy every foreclosed mortgage and rebuild every school and road in America not to mention solve healthcare and even have some money left over. That of course does not even start to take into account the realities of the highest costs of oil ever, the lowest value of the dollar in decades, the growing debt, out of control spending, 4 dollar gallon of gas, increasing foreclosures, and of course the lives lost in Iraq and Afghanistan. What a ridiculous situation. Let's keep voting Republican since 7 years of control have done so much good and Democrats are going to ruin the country. Oh well America, who got voted off Idol.
