Let me get this straight. We promised 18.4 Billion to dedicate to reconstruction of Iraq, and we're paying up. This is a Betrayal?

You broke it, you fix it. You could at least get them back to a pre-war state, but nooo.... :rolleyes:


I spent a lot of money on booze, birds and fast cars. The rest I just squandered.
