BTW, if GWB had been required to ask congress for higher taxes to fight OUR war in Iraq, we might have done things differently.
There, I fixed it for you.
Seems to me we were running $400 billion deficits during the Iraq War and not all of that was due to the war. In fact less than $150 billion a year on both wars. The fact that we had to reconstitute defense and intelligence after Clinton and Gingrich raped them for the "peace dividend" in the 90s is unrelated to the wars, but related to the threat of terror. So much for the "end of conflict between nations".
