How to pay for the war
Hope I'm not stealing someone else's idea. Probably am but oh well I just thought of it.

Everybody that supported the war and was cheering * on all last winter and spring should get an extra tax bill in the mail and split the cost evenly amongst themselves. Those of us who opposed the war should get a tax break since we did what we could to stop this from happening but they didn't listen to us.

2. Great
It'll piss 'em off that much more. Maybe next time they'll think before they decide to unilaterally invade a country.

4. Good one!
Plus, if Rush and the RNC tell them that it's OK, they'll pay happily.

5. Have GW run a fundraiser
$5 to throw a pie in his face.

It would raise trilions. Heck, I'm down for 5 pies.
