Really? The common person in Iraq would completely disagree...but you wouldn't understand cause you live in sunny Southern California, and preach from your laptop without ever sacrificing anything(unless you really are that retired military Senator hidin out in your office).
As far as the money goes, you cleverly forgot to mention the billions in [B]FOREIGN[B] aid that Obama pledged in addition to what they already got that is going to places like Egypt, who conveniently vote against the US in every UN vote. Good thing we need to give away more money to non-americans beyond the ones that actually showed an effort to get here, even it was illegally.
