The 87 Billion Dollar Question
By L. Reichard White

Once again proving chief Nazi "information officer" Dr. Joseph P. Goebbles right, [1] the Washington D.C. prevaricators [2] continue to mislead us fools and dupes --- this time, as to what that $87 billion -- you know, for "Iraqi reconstruction" -- will actually go for.

This week, the $87 billion in "reconstruction" money was prominently resurrected in the U.S. Presidential race. G.W. Bush's handlers dug into the records and found that Democratic Presidential front-runner -- and Bush's fellow Bonesman [3] John Kerry in his capacity as U.S. Senator, opposed the "Iraq Reconstruction Bill" and "reconstruction" money -- until recently. The Bush attack contains a current clue as to the $87 billion prevarication -- which is to this day maintained by both halves of the Demo-publican Axis: The Bush camp claimed Kerry's votes against the "reconstruction" money would have deprived American soldiers of body armor and other needed military supplies.

In 1937, Goering’s Luftwaffe, requiring actual practice in aerial attack methods, demonstrated not only National Socialism’s ties to totalitarian fascism, but provided the first example known in eradicating civilian populations of non-combatant cities, towns and villages via aerial attack. The techniques proved useful when Hitler launched his “blitzkrieg” on Poland commencing WWII in 1939. Hitler perfected breaking a nation’s will by attacking its unarmed populace directly.

Missing - $89 Billion
Trust Fund Mysteriously Disappears
By Ed Henry

Do you remember the uproar over President Bush's request for $87 billion to complete the invasion of Iraq and restore order? It was the subject of argument for months before the government went ahead and borrowed the money anyway? At the time, I wondered why President Bush was asking Congress for the money when he was on his way to running up the national debt a whopping $555 billion for the year anyway.

Well, there's another one that isn't getting any attention at all. This time, it pertains to one of the 119 trust funds that the government has set up for itself. A group of trusts that make up only about seven percent of the Intragovernmental Holdings portion of the national debt where 24 entitlements like Social Security hold the bulk, all the rest of our $3 trillion debt in this category.
