The U.S. is going into debt fighting a hopeless “credit card - I owe you” civil war in Iraq. The Shiites are the North and the Sunnis are the South.
Bush's war in Iraq has been a bloody success! That is if you measure success as record profits for Exxon-Mobil, price for barrel $31 in 2000 and 99 cents per gallon gas prices. That was then, price per barrel $111 in 2008 - $3.35 per gallon today. And now $3 trillion more national debt! Most of that debt is financed by the Communist China government. (Thank you, Walmart!) Buy American!
Here is a breakdown of $12 billion per month spent in Iraq war: $12 trillion divided by 30 equals $400 million per day; $400 million divided by 24 equals $16,666,666.66 per hour; $16,666,666.66 divided by 60 equals $277,777.76 per minute; $277,777 divided by 60 equals $4,629.62 per second!
Maybe George W. will write his memoirs some day and look back on our deflated economy and admit his “mistake” in invading Iraq rather than Saudi Arabia; the U.S. would not be in this predicament (quagmire).
Are you ready for the Iran war (vote McCain and see). Vote Obama 2008 -- U.S. out of Iraq. (Iran!) Fight your own civil war/war for oil?
