$2,000,000,000 A Day

So I saw on the Web the other day that, by some measures, we are now spending $2 billion a day in Iraq.

That’s $2 BILLION . . . or $2,000,000,000 . . . every damn DAY. Or, $14 billion a week. Or $60 billion every month.

You know, I gotta admit, the Bush administration is efficient.

I mean, when I was a boy, we used to say that whenever you got Republicans into the White House, they’d “fiscal responsible” (new verb) us into a Depression. And whenever you got Democrats there, they’d moralize us into a War.

However, with the Bushies . . .

They’ve managed to do both at the same time.

Now THAT’S efficiency.
