I think this is long overdue, with Iraq have viable oil fields they should have been helping to foot the bill to rebuild their infrastructure all along.

Democrats put together this bill so I'm hoping it'll make it through. Hope there are no earmarks to slow it down ;(

Wow. Reading that you can't help but wonder what took so long.
875 Billion dollars spread out over 300 Million US citizens is a crazy ammount to spend for a war that really hasn't benefited us as a country any (and easily argued in many threads here hurt us greatly) while Iraq is pulling in 80 Billion in fuel alone this year. Good grief.

So you're saying they should pay for their own occupation?

Damn them for having been so lazy before hand.

dont worry guys, its gonna pay for itself in 30 days, after that, its all profit!

Its not an occupation. We won the war in Iraq years ago. You must have missed the press conference.

Now if we could only get those Sadaam backed Al Qiayada Shiites to embrace flag pin wearing. we could concentrate on our real enemies. Tibet! and those radical south Chicago christian militia's they support.
