Billions and Billions of Wasted Dollars
Remember how Bush's economic adviser Lawrence Lindsey was fired for publicly stating that the Iraq war was going to cost $200 billion?
Well, the latest word is that the administration is going to request "about $70 billion more for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan in the ongoing budget year." Add that to the previous cost, and we're well over Lindsey's estimate.
How some people can continue to insist that this president is an honest, upright man is beyond me.
