Puke factor is a phrase I learned when dealing with sales people. They would be pitching their product or service to me with add-ons, et cetera and would want to know when they got to my 'puke factor'. This meant when did I stop listening and start thinking they were out of their minds. So, there's your business lesson for the day. Why do I bring it up? Just read that Bush will ask for $120 billion for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Oh. My. God.
$120 billion. Dude, that's a lot.
Nope. I'm saying $120 Billion is a LOT of money. To think about it makes me feel like I'm going to puke.
Damn! Better push some more tax-cuts to pay for those and the upcoming Iran war.
I need a beer....sheesh.
At roughly a million bucks per man in the field , you'd think they'd be both properly funded and properly armored.
Dave, it's only about 10k that goes to troops after the contractors take their cut.
With this request goes the last vestige of Republican fiscal responsibility.
Trey did you serve in the millitary?
Nope.
Are you trying to say we shouldn't properly fund our troops in the field?
