One of Bush's favorite ways to confuse his ignorant followers is talk as if the Iraq war is a 'war on terrorism'. The well educated and those with integrity know the difference and know that the war in Iraq is not about terrorism.
So when the news media reports that Bush is asking for an additional $120 billion for the Afghanistan and Iraq wars the public should demand the two be separated. Bush should not be allowed to commingle the justified war in Afghanistan that 100% of the American people and almost every single country in the world supported with his fiasco in Iraq.
The article from ABC below points out that after this additional $120 billion, Bush has squandered $500 billion and although the article doesn't point out the fact that Afghanistan is LESS than 1/20th of that, less than $25 billion, I will.
Bush should not be allowed to further disguise the cost of his lying blunder of invading in Iraq. He was allowed to do that and was able to get re-elected because Americans were not smart enough to figure that out in 2004, but those days are over. The gig is up, Dubya.
Bush will never tell the American public the truth but we expect the truth about the difference between Afghanistan and Iraq by our free press and we shouldn't accept anything less.
Bush to Request $120B More for War Funding
The Bush administration said Thursday it will ask Congress for $120 billion more for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and $18 billion more this year for hurricane relief.
If approved by Congress, the war money would push spending related to the wars toward a staggering half-trillion dollars.
(CORRECTION FROM THE NEWS MEDIA-BUSH REQUESTS ADDITIONAL $114 BILLION FOR IRAQ FIASCO AND $6 BILLION FOR AFGHANISTAN, RAISING THE COST OF THE NEOCON'S LIES TO $475 BILLION AND RIGHTFUL ACTION IN AFGHANISTAN TO $25 BILLION)
DEMAND THE TRUTH. DON'T BE A WEAK-KNEED CHUMP. GET OFF YOUR KNEES, YOU'RE EMBARRASSING YOURSELF!
