I cannot sit here all day typing as I am at work. Your "friend" above does not have all the facts down. One for example is that Bush only spent $87 billion in Iraq. He has spent over $120 billion and the costs are expected to reach over $200 billion by the end of everything.
If you want to know where a canidate stands on certain issues go to their website. If you haven't noticed, the debates are mostly spent badmouthing the other person. No body gets much across. If Bush doesn't want to answer a question directed at him, he just avoids it and switches to another topic. Here are the sites for the uneducated people:
http://www.georgebush.com/
or
http://www.johnkerry.com
How is there an easier way to find info?
As I am still here, Education has gotten worse. I got a small grant last year and this year I recieved no grant at all. I have to foot all the money out of my pocket. I am not sure if this was your first grant or not JDM but it has not gotten better for me. My income has not changed much at all and I get no money compared to the $400-500 I recieved last year per semester taking 16-17 credits. If you got a grant this year and not last year, you should check your income change. It has gotten worse for me.
I will probly come back later. It has taken me ~30 minutes to type this as I am trying to help customers. See Ya!
