Aaaa ha ha ha ha ha… Sorry, I saw the title of the thread in the index again.
They’ve already began cutting the pork barrel spending before even sworn in. There working on a plan to give illegal aliens social security retirement with retroactive credit for the time they worked in Mexico…
Aaaaahhhhh (Is there an emotion icon for one pulling his hair out?)…

LOL. Not going back, the money for that program is still being spent. Do you think that we even had $7Trillion to spend in 1964?!

What?! You don't think that it's fair to give Mexican workers SS benefits after 1 1/2 years of working legally even though you and I have to work for 10 years to get SS benefits? Why how.............American of you!!!!

Nothing compared to the HUNDREDS of TRILLIONS of DOLLARS spent on the Iraq war. Which to you is more wasteful?

Can you provide a source for this "Hundreds of Trillions of Dollars" claim?

It's probably closer to one Trillion.

It's $1/2 - 1Trillion by the time all is said and done, considerably less than our lost war on poverty.

I just looked and it's at 1.9 trillion now. You can find that info on Google.

Which is more wasteful, though? You don't get my point, I'm afraid.

The $7Trillion spent to create millions of additional poor people, destroy the family unit, increase crime, drug abuse, etc., had far more impact on your life than Iraq has or will have.

How has welfare created more violence and drug abuse? People are going to cause crime and do drugs even without welfare. Without welfare, there would be probably more burglary and murder to get the drugs bceause of lack of money, thus more crime and drugs are seen less with welfare.

So you support your taxes going to foreign aid and a war more than you would support your own peoples' general welfare? That's just messed man.

What's messed up is your line of thinking that my tax money should be wasted on people who don't care enough to support themselves. I'd rather my tax money was spent providing for a strong defense of this country then wasted on an idiot program like welfare.

Spoken like a true Reaganite.

And this always comes down to: How was Iraq ever a threat to the U.S.? If you Republicans were afraid of a country with a small, unloyal military, no sophisticated weapons, and few allies in the area, I'd like to point out that you guys must be shitting yourselves at the power of France.

well looks like you got it all figured out. Hell the Taliban had an even smaller, less sophisticated military then Iraq, so they and Al Quieda must have been even less of a threat. I'm glad we have deep thinkers like yourself to point out these finer points of military strategy.
