Today's post to other blogs. Feel free to copy/paste. |

Today, I'm posting this to three different blog threads at jsonline.com (Milwaukee Urinal / Sentinel). Please emulate this simple act of activism, if it pleases you.
"Since it can't be found anywhere else in the Lamestream Media, I'll post it here.
Today, just today, we'll spend $450,000,000 on the two wars. Just today.
Plus a million and change for each cruise missile fired in Libya, now well over 100. Can't afford Social Security, Medicare, feeding our children or anything else that might actually help Americans, but we lust for war. Three now. Count 'em. Three."

4. It should be a crime to "assist" other (oil-rich) countries while putting the policing nation's |
|
citizens' needs last. $450,000,000 in one day. For 3 wars.
And we never had a say in any of it.

5. Well, I guess the jsonline got tired of me calling them out... |

My usual post, quoted in the original OP, has apparently been blocked, after ~ 30 straight days of posting.
But Scuba shall not be deterred (at least not yet). My other posts were not being blocked, so I just changed my daily post to read:
"Here's a flash. On this date, March 23, 2011,the US will spend four hundred and fifty million dollars on the two wars. Today!
Plus a million and change for each of the 100 - plus cruise missiles fired in Libya. No money for Social Security, Medicare, feeding children or anything else that might help someone, but man do we love war. MMMMMMmmmmm, smell the blood. "
Posted! Winning!

"Scuba - yeah its too bad we had to start all those wars... I don't know about you but I feel a lot safer getting groped by the tsa having the feds listen to my calls and most of all having most of our troops overseas and away from the country the should be protecting "
