Iraq Costs $343,000,000 Per Day
Rachel Maddow just said that figure.

2 things:

1) All these costs are off budget and funded by "emergency funds"
every three months.

b) Not on Rachel but we are paying for this war on money that is being
loaned by The People's Republic of China and our good friends from
Saudi Arabia.

Just thought some of you might want to know .... but after all we do have a new
season of
coming on so no worries.
