"Personally, I'm tired of hearing about the military being "in harm's way", as if they were little children walking across the street without holding their mommies' hands. They're warriors, for goodness sake! Harm is their business."

Exactly. We lost many more thousands in WW's I and II and in Viet Nam. As for the MONEY spent...where were these burgeoning expert economists all those when we were throwing $$$$$ away to keep Saddam from annihilating the Kurds and MORE $$$$$$$$$ to Saddam and the UN elite via the blood for oil vouchers program?

It depends on the issue whether or not the money is being spent improperly, if pubbies spend money it's always wrong. If dem/'rats spend on anything it's always right.
