I found the comparison cots interesting.

D that is a great website. You know what the funny thing is. When we had Iraq in quarantine, that is to say 2/3 of that country a no fly zone for Saddamy's airforce, weapons inspectors crawling all over the place, a naval flotilla in the gulf and men in Saudi Arabia and Qatar and the occasional bomb run it was far cheaper, no soldiers were dying, and Saddam was caged up. He was no threat to anyone outside his nation. Oh well I give kudos to the BA for finding a way to double the national debt. I hated Clinton, but give the devil his due in saying for a very brief time the debt clock started rolling back and at one point they actually turned it off. I realize some of this debt the BA has incurred was caused by the War in Afghanistan and against the Talibums and Al Qaeda and thats all right, other stuff was spent by FEMA and what not but I want to know how much of it was spent on stuff that we really don't need. Also I want to know how much the small government conservatives increased the size of government.
