Zeev's Turnips Talk Politics (ZTTP)

[sarai]

That is not the ONLY reason "the Arab states don't like us"...

We have committed to "rebuilding" Afghanistan and Iraq -- post war.
I am wondering how the Bush regime is planning on financing this "rebuilding"...
With our own state and local govs insolvent,
we are looking at massive and unavoidable cuts in vital services.
This, in recessionary times with deficit spending and debt (both public and private)
at unprecedented highs.....

With our owns state govs insolvent, how does Bush bankroll Afghanistan and Iraq??.. At this point, for political, security and other reasons, "walking away" is not an option...

Property taxes are skyrocketing, cuts are threatened in VITAL services. And the public will support parlaying billions in Iraq because we "liberated" those people?.....
