We can't give 28 billion dollars for Children's Health Care but we can continue to give money to Iraq/Afghanistan with no problem. What other programs will be cut next because Bush/Cheney want to give away the money. Americans will be seeing children die unless we got foreign aide from the UN.
So right you are Jackie, and that money goes for bloodshed instead of helping quality of life here, and especially for children.
It's sad that the Gerbil is turning this country into a third world country. The American people will be panhandlers to survive in this country while the taxpayers' money is allocated to Iraq where the Iraqis will be sipping on Starbucks cappacinos and prospering employment. A hopping town and lending hand in Iraq and a hand out USA. Real sad.
