2. Dizzying numbers,

Literally.

This site has HUGE number across the top which is CONSTANTLY GROWING before your eyes. The effect is mesmerizing and extremely chilling.

Simultaneously, they have comparative numbers of what could be done with the money, (what is NOT being done with the money) and those numbers are also constantly growing in tandem with the Iraq spending.

Very impressive. Great find. Everyone should see this.

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired, signifies in the final sense a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."

Dennis Kucinich is the ONLY candidate that was right about this, like WE were, before these numbers started.


A loyal progressive Democrat that opposed the mounting cost, through speaking what Americans that were in the streets by the millions were saying-No Iraq War.


Just get it from the guy himself, though, then decide what kind of a future we want.
