THE Iraq war has cost the US 50-60 times more than the Bush administration predicted and was a central cause of the sub-prime banking crisis threatening the world economy, according to Nobel Prize-winning economist Joseph Stiglitz.
The former World Bank vice-president yesterday said the war had, so far, cost the US something like $US3trillion ($3.3 trillion) compared with the $US50-$US60-billion predicted in 2003.
Ever wonder why Bush kept the costs of the Iraqi war out of the budget?
back away from the koolaid. No ones freedom was at stake.. well the few hundred thousand iraqi's that have died... but I'm sure you think that's a small price to pay... especially when it isn't you the one footing the bill.
Someone should have told these blood thirsty war mongering Democrats that before they involved us in an adventurous war of choice.
While I see thread after thread complaining about Obama's Health Care Reform costs .... I think we NEED a reminder of how much George W. Bush's Iraq War cost the U.S. Taxpayer.

The hypocrisy, as well as the complete, utter, depressingly stark contrast between healthcare and war. To consider that one was considered necessary (war in Iraq) versus the other not being necessary (healthcare) should concern all Americans at how propaganda actually works. And works against the American people and the world's best interests
Just leave out the word "world" and you GOT IT
Sorry, but we can't help the world if we don't have it
together at home.
8 years of bush never happened.
but obama is president now- that means we're 90% communist.
by the way, white people are going to be the minority soon- which means its time to secede.
a black president + universal healthcare + whites not being the majority = nightmare.
patriot act wasn't bad.
going to war with iraq under false pretenses isnt bad either.
obama reading from teleprompters proves he's unfit for the job!
but bush failing to pronounce every day English words is not indicative of his intelligence or lack thereof
no child left behind- a huge success
Mike Brown as director of fema- brilliant move. his experience as the judges and stewards commissioner for the international arabian horse association proved effective in his handling of the katrina disaster.
the deficit was 32 billion his first year. by 2002 it was at 317 billion. no problems there either.
wheres bin laden? lets check iraq and afghanistan.
