Seems that everyone is more concerned about Al Gore's supposed $1200 electric bill last month than the $200 million a day being spent in Iraq.

According to an msnbc article titled "Cost of Iraq war could surpass $1 trillion", By Martin Wolk Chief economics correspondent, "The Pentagon is spending about $6 billion a month on the war in Iraq, or about $200 million a day, according to the CBO. That is about the same as the gross domestic product of Nigeria."

But never mind that - Let's all worry about how much Al Gore's electrical bill was last month.


Stumble It!
