Iraq war: $2,000,000,000 (yes, BILLION) A WEEK

Kerry said the war will cost more than $200 billion, and he was laughed at by W and his pet media. Now we already spent $300 billion, just approved another $70 billion, and its climbing. But don't worry, our friends at Haliburton are getting rich. And now we are spending $2 billion each week

A new congressional analysis shows the Iraq war is now costing taxpayers almost $2 billion a week -- nearly twice as much as in the first year of the conflict three years ago and 20 percent more than last year -- as the Pentagon spends more on establishing regional bases to support the extended deployment and scrambles to fix or replace equipment damaged in combat.
Can I get a cut? Oh--I am not a republican.
