MEASURE

Heard an interesting tidbit of statistical information on the Al Franken Show today. As you all know, the last two major terrorist attacks, London and Madrid have been attacks on trains, or other railways like London's subway.

In Bush's Homeland Security budget he spends the same amount for railway security in the entire U.S., for the entire budget year that he's spending in Iraq every 8 HOURS.

Oh, you didn't know Bush has spent $350 MILLION a DAY in Iraq? That's almost $15 MILLION an HOUR or $243,000 a MINUTE.

But sure, it's worth it though because the Iraqi people need to be able to vote after all.

So, 8 hours of the cost of Iraq equals a full year of security for our railways. Seems typically Republican to me.

It's your money fools.
