"...the Bush administration allocated $100 million in 2005 to the "Garden of Eden Wetlands" restoration at the mouth of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers in Iraq."

1. This just fucking enrages me. FUCKING BASTARD FUCKS!

I've said many times before that Bush cares more about Iraq than America.

He is a fucking TRAITOR and needs to be treated as such.

2. I don't understand the point

what I know of, some areas in Iraq were dried out by Saddam to dislodge the shiite rebellion after Gulf War.

If the US restored this area and succeeded (unlike restoring for example electricity) they cannot be blamed for that.

You cannot accuse the US of mismanaging Iraq's infrastructure during and after the war and blame them at the same time if they restore some of it. You can blame them for being in Iraq but not blame them if - when being there - do for once something useful.

It's two different problems. The fact that there is a clusterfuck in NO and the restoration of wetlands in Iraq has only one thing in common : this administration is good at flooding.

4. The $100 million spent in Iraq for the "Garden of Eden" could

have saved NOLA and we have no business being in Iraq.

5. Agree, but since the US ARE in Iraq....

it's better that some money for reconstruction was used in proper manner than going in whatever destruction or corruption

3. The welfare of the American People is not a priority for Bu$h.

Building an American corporate empire is the PNAC agenda, not looking out for the welfare of Americans.

Bush is just the figurehead. The real power is with the CEOs of the war-profiteering corporations.

6. iraq wetlands money

I believe Howard Dean should get the data on where the billion per
day is being spent in Iraq. It's possible that we are paying for
the pensions of Iraqi citizens, gaurds for assembly people, etc.
When things such as this wetland restoration being paid for by the
american taxpayer is made public, people will question the expieriment
in Iraq even more than they already are..

7. That's a really good point

I'm really sick of this bullshit of my tax dollars going to create an Iraqi welfare state.
