I meant incremental cost.

We're winning!

Ahhh, so increments of 10 at a time is OK.
Lets see now, 30,000 dead in Iraq over 2 years.
That's increments of say 300/week.....'only' 43/day.

I guess to a lunatic, that's acceptable.

Who's winning again?
And what is it that you're winning?

I welcome you to crackerbox palace,We've been expecting you.

Well, for Bushco it is acceptable. No doubt, they've done all the focus
groups, they know exactly how many American boys the public will tolerate
being killed, as long as the #'s don't cross that threshold, everything's
okey dokey. Rice announced recently that the US "might" be in Iraq for
another 10 years, barely made the news. The incremental cost that might get
the public's attention is how much we're spending there, that isn't
changing. If you can't win their hearts, appeal to their wallets.
