Republicans Steal Another $22 Billion

According to this International Herald Tribune article, the Fanaticans have stolen another $22 Billion from the U.S. public.

To be fair, $22 Billion divided over 220 million taxpayers* comes to only $100 a person - which is chump change when compared to the $2 Trillion [!!!] that the Iraq Debacle (or is that Bush Quagmire) will end up costing the U.S. public.

I know what you're gonna say: the $2 Trillion is worth it. The reasons are summarized in this video from the 2004 Republican National Convention in NYC.

[*] The U.S. probably does not have 220 million taxpayers, but this over-estimate makes it easy to do the math in your head.
