More Wars!

I wonder if it will ever end?

President Obama got Bin Laden, and now we pledge to hunt and kill his successor.

WASHINGTON (AFP) – The United States will seek to hunt down and kill new Al-Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri just as it did his predecessor Osama bin Laden, the top US military officer said Thursday.

"There is not a surprise from my perspective that he's moved into that position," Admiral Mike Mullen, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, told journalists after the Egyptian leader was named the new Al-Qaeda chief.

"He and his organization are still threatening us, and as we did both seek to capture and kill -- and succeed in killing -- bin Laden, we certainly will do the same thing with Zawahiri."

I thought the idea was to cut off the snake's head?

We have blossomed from two wars to 4 with a renewed push to stay on the aggressive.

Libya is expected to hit  $1.1 billion, with an additional $50 million spent on munitions by September.

You'd just sit there bitchin' if it did...unless Bachmann was in charge apparently.

So stop going after AlQaeda?  You Republicans are confusing as smile.

The cost of the Iraq war is now $783 billion.

$1.1 billion on Libya sounds like a bargain. Obama must be using coupons.

Yes, the frugality is astonishing.

What the hell, it's only a billion.

OK, wait...the hundreds of billions on the other war is cool?

[Hoss]

It's the way the conservatives justify it.  I hate-hate-hated the Iraq war.  Bush would have been the one celebrating his takedown of OBL had he not put us (our brave men and women in uniform that represent the US) in that position.

Where did you mine that from?

Perhaps I didn't understand.  you only mentioned the one.

I'd've preferred none of this had started.

That was my response to the line of thinking on federal waste in Washington.  "But it's only a billion" as if that's an insignificant amount of money.  Wait, I guess it is when you have an open checkbook and zero responsibility for the money.

LOL

A billion dollars is walkin-around money for this administration.  President Obama's checks have twelve zeros not nine.

Conan, folks that use expressions like "only a billion" have no concept of what that amount really represents. After all, when they pay only a few dimes a year in federal income tax, assuming they pay at all, it's not their money being wasted on whatever.

[Townsend]

Who did that G?

[Townsend]

LOL

Do you really do that every time you post that?



"You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."
