ABC Reporti!newly released numbers from Bush.$800MIL to pay Polish Troops
as Mercenaries fighting for USA! That's what stood out......plus that a huge amount of money is to replace Military Equipment such as the "defective armour"(my spin) stuff that the military needs to keep functioning in Iraq.

6. The coalition of the.................
bought and paid for. Coalition of the willing my ass. Yet the Chimp will still get away with the lies, no one will remember this next week. Just another forgotten lie from the administration that was going to bring "dignitude" back to the White House.

7. Coalition of the billing
That "willing" was just a typo. As long as Uncle Sam provides cash up front, a lot of nations are willing to supply a few mercenaries.

And if you're wondering how well a bunch of Polish soldiers are going to integrate with the American forces, well . . . just remember we're getting them for the bargain price of $800 million!
