Pro-war and anti-tax are mutually exclusive positions
The Iraq War, which all the teabaggers (with the possible exception of Ron Paul supporters and other assorted libertarians) support, costs $255 million per day--nearly $2 billion per week.

To put that in perspective, we will spend as much on the Iraq War between midnight and 3:30 pm tomorrow as AIG spent on the much-reviled bonus payments.

The teabaggers want lower taxes? Fine. We'll just end the war they love so much, and then they can have lower taxes.
