1. Yes. A huge national debt that will be handed down for the middle and
lower class is such a gift. the super rich always find a way around the tax burden we pay.

Hey, if it's such a great gift, let's let him buy it. I'd happily give up my share!

5. One may be deprived of grandchildren
if an only child is fighting in that war.

8. Not HIS grandchildren.
After all, members of the ruling gentry don't sully their hands by fighting the wars they've started.

12. A gift that keeps on giving -- debt, death, pain, disability
And it's not such a nice gift for the grandchildren who will hear the stories about how Grandpa/Grandma died in Bush's war . . .

19. God, what a slimy looking pig.
And unbelievably stupid to boot. Yeah, DU, hatred of the US for generations, trillions in debt - that's REALLY going to do our grandchildren a great service.

What a maroon.
