8. $120 billion and counting

NOTHING in the next year's budget projections for Iraq and it will be another $60 billion or so.

Pundits are saying it will cost a trillion if it goes on 15 years as expected.

That would buy a lot of oil, or make huge inroads in alternative fuel goals, and would be less bloody.

But then, smirk couldn't call himself a "war prezdint" so I guess we can't have that, can we?
