Soooo Right. Think he's already got the Storm!! But he is telling the Republicans (they want to increase the Iraq troop level) that to do this they cannot keep sending the same troops again and again into the war zone without additional troops in the standing Army. How will they do this - the Army just requested $150++ Billion just for next year - and replacing equipment?? Wow!! Glad someone has Plenty of Money. AND then add the cost of the attack on Iran!! Thanks for the replies - enjoy reading you-alls posts. Thank you - Paul P.S. I'm going to try your tomato growing idea -I've been eyeing all the straw bales- haloween displays!! But everyone seems to have the same idea!! Ha- they all go fast...Paul
