$10.6 billion please

Well in addition to the colossal amounts of tax-payer money we are dumping into Iraq what's another $10.6 billion?
It seems the American tax-payer has deep pockets that we somehow forgot we had.
Since 2001 the U.S. has provided over $14.2 billion in aid to Afganistan.
I wonder how much the American tax-payer can afford.
Whatever happened to the idea of raising monies via War Bonds?
So it goes.

Fordless

I find it quite ironic that Ford Motor Company reported such a huge loss recently while the oil corporations reported such incredible profits recently.
I wonder if these two are somehow connected?
Here's an idea:
Produce more fuel-efficient cars, trucks and S.U.V.'s.
So it goes.

Clinton in

The news is out. Clinton is in the Presidential race. The quote I read I think was funny. "And I'm in to win."
Well excuse me but isn't everyone that is in any race in it to win it?
Maybe the suits in D.C. are too blinded by their own greatness, to realize that the average American knows that when in competition you are making your best effort to win first place.
So it goes.
