So Robert Gates and George W. Bush are whining about 50 billion dollars to fund the war. Robert Gates claims that if he does not get 50 billion more tax dollars from us, then the Pentagon will be forced to lay off workers in less than 60 days. I highly doubt it would be that fast, but these drama queens are acting like it's the end of the military as we know it.
Harry Reid should not be scared of this bully Bush, we the people of america are with leaders in congress who stand up to him. The public has decided enough is enough a long time ago, and we are tried of paying for this fool to send our brave troops off to die. We do not want to give Bush another dime for his war of choice, and refuse to let our nation be bankrupted by an expansion of our oil empire. So Reid listen up, we do not give you Senators the authority to barrow more money from China for this war. You can tell Bush that he should go find the money somewhere else. Im sure Bush can find some people who have the $50 billion. In fact I know where to start asking, look no further than the companies who are profiting off the war and the expansion of our empire. If the war profiteers don't have enough cash to spare, then look to the financial corporations that buy up predatory loans and trade the debts on the open market.
