<DIV></DIV>>Courtesy of an AP story on page 2 of this morning's Spokesman: The nearly
<DIV></DIV>>75 million dollars that President Bush has requested from Congress to
<DIV></DIV>>finance six months of war expenses in Iraq is nearly 10 times the entire
<DIV></DIV>>2004 budget requested for the EPA. Four times the proposed budget for the
<DIV></DIV>>Justice Department, including the FBI. Double the request of the Department
<DIV></DIV>>of Housing and Urban Development. That six months funding would buy 460,000
<DIV></DIV>>young American men and womena four year Harvard education or a median-cost
<DIV></DIV>>house. A year's salary for 2 million workers at the national average wage.
<DIV></DIV>>A year of prescription drug benefits for 41 million Medicare beneficiaries.
<DIV></DIV>>Day care for 13.5 million poor children. There's more, if you care to read
<DIV></DIV>>the story.
