300 Billion pissed away in Iraq.

Countless billions in aid to countries overseas.

And you spout shibboleths to let the devastated part of the country be devastated.

No. Rebuild. The President was on the money.

The obscenity is those who don't want to rebuild.

AS MUCH MONEY AS IT TAKES.

In fact, stop all overseas aid if that's what it takes.

If you're against it, I can understand what you're saying. It does at least have the cloak of constitutionality, if you buy the construal of the WoT as "common defense".

Countless billions in aid to countries overseas.

And every penny of it unconstitutional.

The obscenity is those who don't want to rebuild. AS MUCH MONEY AS IT TAKES.

Put your money where your mouth is. Cough up two billion yourself. Or, as much money as you have in this earth. Hopefully, others will follow your example. But for some reason, your high-minded moralism doesn't involve personal sacrifice; you merely advocate that someone else be expropriated to do your idea of a good deed.

In fact, stop all overseas aid if that's what it takes.

Stop the foreign aid and don't rebuild NO. When the economy gets glowing like a furnace, everyone affected by the storm will be on their feet in no time.

The other points you made in your posts were spot on. But on this one, you're WAY off the mark.
