      We have no real idea how much has been sunk into Iraq, with all the soldiers of fortune and subcontracting going on we may never know, suffice it to say it has cost far more than both world wars and viet nam lumped together, though that is a guess.
      Before Iraq, the US accounted for 48% of all military spending in the world, as you can see from the newest information, we are well over the 50% mark now.
      So mrfantasy, whose pants are flaming? Mine are quite comfortable thankyou.

        Honestly, I can't fault mrrealestate though, I don't want to admit this any more than he. But denial is not a river in Africa, it is perhaps a defense mechanism, yet one that must be confessed in order to progress. It's nice to live in a safe little bubble where facts like this don't interfere with our illusions, but it is not real and it is not honest. I suspect if more Bushies at least knew the facts they too would be appalled. But it is that denial that prevents catharsis.
