The drunken sailors in the Bush/Cheney administration have given power-of-attorney for access to the nation's bank account to their cronies, the War Profiteers.
Disgraced former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld said this disaster in Iraq would cost $50 billion. When Lawrence Lindsey--once the administration's own chief economic advisor--said the figure would be closer to $200 billion, Rumsfeld sniffed, "Baloney."
Lindsey got bounced shortly after his higher estimate.
Nobel Prize-winning economist Joseph Stiglitz and Harvard lecturer Linda Bilmes estimate the debacle's cost at $3 trillion.
Now that George W. Bush has blown our dough, let's have some fun!
What else could $3 trillion pay for?

Now go blow some dough!
