Can't say I can argue the issue. :? It's got to be done and it has to be paid for.

I agree Mf - sacrifices have to be made somewhere - and you have to admit this is money well spent if Sadamn is removed from power.

P.S. If we cut off the aid to French we could recoup this discrepance IMO

What's that mean, that this amount will remain in the taxes to be collected?
Ya gotta do what ya gotta do. Our safety comes first.
I heard that there are frozen Iraqui assets that will be used to help pay for this too.

The US Government is trying to sieze Iraqi assets world wide. We'll have to see how succesful they will be in getting other countries to cooperate. The Iraqi oil will be a big help and that's why it's so important to keep them from destroying the oil infrastructure.
