On a side note: the long-term effects of preferring the defense budget over, say, public education for a couple of generations are going to hurt. A lot. But hey, keep 'em stupid and keep 'em scared and you can do what you want, and never run out of cannon fodder as a bonus, right?

Did anyone else have a hearty laugh when they saw Bush (mr. God told me to go to war) condemn Russia for invading a foreign country?
I was going to post something, but then I realized you're an idiot. No other response required.
