Great. The ultimate in conservative trickery. We are tricked into supporting the war, but not supporting public welfare (such as healthcare) at home. Now, in a twist of fate, we are supporting public welfare for Iraqis. [img]graemlins/1pissed.gif[/img] I hope you conservatives appreciate the irony of this. Your tax dollars are buying Iraqi's good health while all those working class folks you convinced to vote for your big-business-loving politicians struggle with no healthcare.
It's the kind of thing that makes me want to find Rush Limbaugh and urinate on his shoes. [img]graemlins/1pissed.gif[/img]
And, it is not merely applicable to healthcare. There are dozens of ways which we will be rebuilding that country - when at home we can't be bothered to fix the exact same problems.
Oh, and don't get me started on the outright injustice involved when the men deciding to go to war are also those who profit from it. Either Halliburton should be ineligible for the contract it got, or Chaney should face the decision to give up Halliburton stock or resign. Personally profiting from the war? - - Even if there were no ill intentions, the conflict-of-interest alone demands to be addressed. [img]graemlins/1pissed.gif[/img]
