Topic: If the war in Iraq cost us $1 trillion...

Externally hosted imageAnd PBS cost us $444 million a year. We could fund PBS for 2,252 years with the money spent on Iraq alone.

Is that right? I keep getting that number, but it seems absurd.


And I am terrible at math.

The Republicans have been out to get pbs for years. They hate things that help poor children, but force them to be born. Its what Jesus would do.

When Romney started spewing about PBS during the first debate I was sure he was going off the reservation. He is just so nuts. How is it even close?

I'm signed up for almost 40 hours of volunteering between now and Nov. 6.

We all would have missed the incredible coverage on CNN. Iraq was one hell of a fireworks show.

I have pondered this question many times. I can't help but think religious issues play a major part in people's decisions. Abortion and birth control are super-important issues to a lot of people, sadly. I can understand the abortion thing mostly, but having a problem with birth control seems outrageous.

If you believe her she says she is in the middle of a mess currently. CNN said if you wanted to listen to all the political adds in Ohio, it would take 4.5 24 hour days.

I vote for Utah because becky, just has to be a Mormon and you know what she has to wear.

In fact if you pay close attention to Romney he clearly says that on the first day he will shut down all funding to planned parenthood. They service the 47%. They also provide the majority of cancer screenings for woman who are at the poverty level and that is a lot of women. Obama insists that Catholic hospitals that take federal funds, provide contraceptives and Romney is 100% against that policy.

Many Republicans running for office currently say its it Gods plan for women to become pregnant through rape. Akins exception because he said women cannot become pregnant when raped.

Paul Ryan if elected, would be a heart beat away from the Presidency. He is a strict Catholic, and strict Catholics are anti contraception. The Catholic church only approves of one method of birth control, the rhythm method.

US Iraq War costed $1 trillion,
That's enough to pay Minichan's legal bill for 27,397 years.
100,000 * 365 = 36,500,000
1,000,000,000,000 / 36,500,000 = 27,397
