That sounds more like the current Democrats. All the spending
now
and
make the grandchildren pay for it.


Oh ............. you mean like Bushs' war?


Dem's voted for the war. So is a joint effort. Clinton bombed
them
daily.
Plus Clinton's bosnia is still costing us money.

You keep harping about Bosnia. Can you tell us how much we've
spent
in Bosnia?

I expect it's a low single digit percentage of what's been ****ed
away
in Iraq.

Additionally, they don't rank as moral equivalents by any
standard.

Bosnia may be an even more evil war. There was absolutely nothing
in
it
for
us. Was a European problem if at all. How much of that Iraq
funding
was
pork? Percentage wise? 25%? 30%?

What was the rest spent on, justifiable planes, tanks, fuel and
bombs?

It's not an issue of pork, it's an issue of 3 trillion dollars
wasted.
The whole ****ing lot.

Actually according to the budget, it is about $850 billion. A far
piece
from $3 trillion. And the pork part did not go to the war.

And how much have we spent in Bosnia?

Too much!

You have no idea but like to use the brush to paint Clinton as a
waster of public funds for wars of choice.

My expectation is that our investment represents and low single digit
percentage of what's been invested in Iraq.


Billions. And since you seem so upset with the Iraq war, why not with the
Bosnian war? If you can destroy a country on the cheap, it is OK?


I'm sorry, what did we destroy? I thought most of the destruction was
done by the locals.


Oops. I was under the impression that around the clock bombing destroyed
stuff on the ground. Thanks for enlightening me.
