More Troops, More Dollars
Pretty neat site...you can even break down the costs of the Dim Son's War by city, town, or county.

With Bushco deciding he needs to throw away another $120-$150 billion, the cost to the taxpayers of my hometown of Indianapolis will work out to be $171.1 million.

Send the link to your freep friends. Maybe if they realized how much it is costing them in actual dollars, they might have a different outlook. Spending human lives doesn't seem to move them much.

"With President Bush's recent move to add more troops to the Iraq War, the price tag to the American taxpayer continues to climb. Find out what the cost so far is to your state, town, or congressional district."

1. That's no problem. The Federal Reserve will print up some more money
tonight. We have all the money we need.

2. Don't usually bump my own threads...
but with the "new and improved" surge escalation numbers, it is even worse
as far as the costs go.
