I realize that this is supposed to be a joke, but even jokes should have
some basis in reality. Really, the funniest thing about this is the
apparent ignorance of the author. If you are interested in accuracy,

Bush already declared "mission accomplished" over a year ago. Since
then, Congress has willingly approved additional funds. Unfortunately,
Iraq is now in a state of complete chaos and comprises a much greater
threat to US interests then it did before the war. Bush has managed to
get us in a quagmire and quagmires and not easily gotten out of.

Actually, Spain has withdrawn from the coalition. Poland just abandoned
two provinces in Iraq today and will get out soon. Australia did not
participate in the invasion and has very few troops on the ground now.
I wonder why such powerhouses as Albania, Angola, Colombia, Dominican
Republic, El Salvador, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Marshall Islands,
Micronesia, and Palau are left off this list? They are all members of
the coalition (at least on paper).

Ha, ha. Talk about misinformed. For FY 2004, the foreign assistance
budget was about $18 billion. The war in Iraq has cost well over $125
billion and will end up costing a lot more. Only Enron's accountant (or
Bush's budget analysts) would argue that cutting foreign aid would save
enough to pay for the war. Moreover, most of the countries in the
coalition are exactly the countries that receive aid. In fact, that is
why they are in the coalition. That why it should properly be called the
"Coalition of the Billing" rather than "Willing". Although Israel, the
largest aid recipient, is not in the coalition. Of course, if Bush cut
Israel's funds, he would be out on his butt in a New York minute (not
that I like that reality, but it is reality).

Actually, a good portion of that money makes its way back to the US to
fatten Americans. Ever heard of Halliburton?

Good call. France has a more generous aid program.
