Fortress America

By Libby

Here's some new exclusive video of the US Embassy in Baghdad. A mighty fortress for our president who thinks he talks to God at a cost of $700 million and counting. By the time they get this monstrosity up to code, I'm betting it will cost close to a billion to build and even worse, it will cost $2 billion a year to run the place.

Another fine production brought to you by the Republican party, who tell us they can't afford to do such things as insure child victims of catastrophic accidents and illnesses because it costs too much. I guess everyone has their own priorites.
