Thousands of foreclosures here in the US, a falling dollar, gas at over $4 a gallon, a stock market in trouble, but we still have $400m to give away overseas! Really?

Our give away money has no accountability to it... I have never heard of a person who has gotten any of our money..

We’re funding Islamic Terrorists and fighting a WOT at the same time?

I don’t think any of us have a clue what is really going on in our government and what their goals are.

This just makes the Iraq endeavor look ridiculous.

Both political parties have reached the point of terminal stupidity.

They have a strangle hold on our democracy and do as they please.
If we don’t somehow eliminate the two party system we won’t have a democracy or a nation.

Great. Build another terrorist Islamic state, which will attack us at some future date with arms bought with our own money. Smart thinking Bush.

This is filed under the same nonsense heading of giving millions to Palestinians. Insane.

How much is the US “giving away” in Iraq?

The US is a rich country. Kosovo is small potatoes. Get a grip.

There's enough Moslems in Michigan to qualify for $400MM in aid. Hell, Michigan was the only state last year to lose population, something like 300,000 people. I'm surprised Carl Levin, the Democrat Senator hasn't helped the motor city or the motor state more. He's absolutely silent.

But Kosovo?? Oh yes.

If it was earmarked to rebuild Christian churches destroyed and desecrated by the muslims (religion of peace) I might see some sense in it. Oh I forgot, we believe in separation of church and state, well at least Christian churches and state.

Can we get this credited as jizya so we the Muslims will leave us alone? I thought not. If not, why the h*ll are we giving a dime to ‘Kosovo’?

Sure..why not? let's give the Muzzie Albanians what they ask for...we already supply them with the means to destroy Christian communities why not even more.


An undated picture shows an Albanian armed man guarding his agricultural land planted with cannabis sativa, in the southern region of Lum Vlora, in the district of Vlora. Many Albanian families support themselves by planting cannabis sativa, which is illegally transported to nearby countries and used to produce hashish.
