obamas new and improved iraq plan

i quess it struck obama that pulling the us forces out of iraq wouldn't solve the problem in iraq (like his guantanamo bay idea) especially if we tell the terrorist when we're leaving.

so his new plan for iraq is to slowly take the armed forces out and send in military and civilian trainers to train the iraqi police to defent their own country. which is good because they can take care of their country and we can focus on ours!

since the iraqi police have done nothing and spent nothing on their war and we've spent oh about 656.1 billion on just the war on iraq. that doesn't include a cent for the surrounding countries.

and in the current economic state we're in an extra 656.1 billion could possibly help the country.

the stimulus bill is made for READING!

has anyone really read the stimulus bill? i don't even think obama has read the whole thing. i recall him promising a "earmark-free stimulus bill". which is not at all what he delivered. i want to know why obama thinks that a stimulus bill with 8500 earmarks is earmark-free.

lets take a look at some of my favorite "non-existant" earmarks...

#1. Polar icebreakers_ cost: 98 million_ Quantity: 1
Reason: "Russia, Germany, China, Sweden and Canada are all investing and maintaining and expanding their national ice-breaking capacity," stated Thad Allen, commandant of the Coast Guard.

#2. $150 million would build new parking facilities for a couple of NFL stadiums.

#3. $150 million for conservation of honeybees and farm-raised fish.

#4. $650 million for digital-TV coupons; $90 million to educate “vulnerable populations”.
we are in a recession and people have no jobs so what should they do? buy a new TV!

we're helping sea turtles and bees in the bill that is suppose to stimulate the economy.

at least when the worlds economy crashes and everybody starves the honey bees and sea turtles will be fine.

YEAH OBAMA!
