Amazing, we have no money for healthcare yet have $1.4 Trillion to burn in Iraq and now more in Afghanistan.
I agree with you 100% on Iraq. I think Bush Jr. went in because he thought it was unfinished business. It was stupid. Saddam had nothing to do with 9/11.
And, Bush got a lot of people killed and spent a lot of money arguably for nothing.
