...and Afghanistan to the Afghanistanis.
What these conservatives do not understand is that when one takes on the world like Bush does, it is not fiscally conservative in the least. An empire takes many resources to maintain, and this is why no great imperial power lives forever. It doesn't make sense from an economic standpoint to launch a pre-emptive war; just look at how much needed to be allocated for WWII (one of the last wars worth fighting).
