[QUOTE="dannyboy, post: 48122"] "As far as the cost of the war in Iraq, look it up yourself, it's not that hard. How much is the lives of 2000 brave Americans worth? Can you put a dollar figure on that for us?" I personally know and have spoken to many servicement in Iraq. Some from our company. You cheapen their services, goals and sacrifices with the dollar figure statement. The pride and satisfaction they have when they come home for the job they are trying to do is evident. Yes it is a great loss when one service person dies. And maybe it could have been handled somewhat differently. But again, deal with what you have and go on. There are many ifs in life. But then again, your position and view taints your objectivity to accept the truth. "For the first time in 37 years, federal budget cuts have all but stopped major work on the New Orleans area's east bank hurricane levees" AFter 37 years of spending my money they still didnt have it right? Why. And what the hell makes them think they could get it right in the next 37 years and many billions of dollars. Its time to quit spending money on pork barrel projects that do not show any real investment return. d [/QUOTE]
