Can't Believe They Said This
You'd think the White House could come up with another photo-op story:
"US president Bush's new Iraq strategy calls for a rapid influx of forces that could add as many as 20,000 American combat troops to Baghdad, supplemented with a jobs programme costing as much as $1 billion intended to employ Iraqis in projects including painting schools and cleaning streets, according to American officials who are piecing together the last parts of the initiative.
Note to White House: This is 2007, not 2003. On the other hand, this might be another Halliburton stock buying opportunity.

Painting schools and cleaning streets can both be done sans electricity, which the average Iraqi is doing without anyway.

How do we get these creatures (neocons) to stop wasting our money? I know how the colonists felt when they had taxation without representation. I truly have no representation in D.C.
