Considering the cost of the Iraq war, and the amount of money being made by private contractors. And considering the amount of profits made by the oil companies by price gouging. Not to mention the pharmacutical companies for the same reason, it is about time that the money raised by our taxes be spent here at home, instead of over in Baghdad, Germany, Africa, Etc.

Why is it that everytime a conservative wants to give our money away to other countries, or to the already wealthy, it is OK with other conservatives, yet when a liberal wants to spend the money at home to fix our problems here, it is not OK?
