Cool New Widget

If you look on the right-hand sidebar just below the BlogAds there is a new Iraq War Cost counter that breaks down what that same amount of money could have provided back here at home. The first two stats were stock options that I chose when I customized the counter for PK. The second two I created and added to it, a really cool feature IMHO. My source for both of those is right here.

Think about it... Instead of foolishly (and expensively!!) invading and occupying Iraq we could have...?

Just to put this into perspective for my fellow Oregonians, remember Measure 50, the Healthy Kids Plan? The goal there was to provide basic health care for 117,000 kids in Oregon. Instead of squandering money in Iraq we could have provided basic health care for over 31 MILLION kids in America. And not just for a few years either. From birth until they were 17 years old!
