Reply #4: It seems the words "War on" mean, "throw money with no plan"...

The War on Drugs was a laughable failure.
The War on Terror should be called The War on the Balanced Budget Amendment.
The War on Poverty really means cutting services so the mortality rate of the poor goes down and then there will be fewer poor people.

All of these terms are empty republican talking points just like Homeland Security and No Child Left Behind, which both remain unfunded to the point of atrophied impotence.
