The numbers being discussed about the monthly cost and eventual total cost of the Iraq War are staggering and unable to be grasped. A war that will end up costing over $2.5 TRILLION is simply a disgrace and an utter waste. The programs and projects that could have implimented with even some of that money would have greatly benefitted many Americans, and now they will never be attempted or completed. $12 billion dollars a month to be cops in a faraway state just to protect oil corporations endless greed is disgusting. The war ended a long time ago and US military forces are simply doing dirty work the Iraqi government should be doing fully themselves by now. The only hope for ending this immoral and criminal travesty is for an election of Obama to the presidency with an overwhelming Democratic majority in both houses of Congress.http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080310/ap_on_re_mi_ea/iraq_war_costs;_ylt=AlHPJGQ43E2RdA9_PJ_pvKys0NUE
