Am I the only person to smell a rat when the govt. says, "Give one of our guys a blank cheque for 1 TRILLION bucks and then GO AWAY!"?  Remember how the US was hustled into the Iraq invasion, and a few said it was an oil grab, and now we have all of these voiced regrets from our politicians, "We were lied to", blah blah.  Here we go again.

A link from Migeru not long ago.

Occupations cost money, even if it's to control US citizens.  What?!  I'm supposed to feel that the money just appropriated will be spent on "good stuff" because our USELESS Congress stepped in?  Pleeeeease!  

They tried to assimilate me. They failed.
