How can you say this after trumpeting the rising costs of the war, and the supposed fiscal mismanagement of the Bush Administration?
ahhh you're getting there!
The govt, our nation, our social security - all going f'king broke by spending $200 million a day on the war.
the defense contractors (collectively called the mil. industrial complex) and war logistics firms are making a mint. The mil. ind. comp. and the Pentagon are very closely tied to one another - people often move in and out of positions in govt, and positions in these firms, as administrations change. Look at cheney's resume- when the repubs were in power, he worked in the white house/pentagon. When out, he worked for defense contractors. Many of the top guys do this. Rummy did it too.
