There's a snappy report from the CRS (non-partisan) up on the NYT which includes this item of information.
For fiscal 2006, monthly costs for Iraq alone could hit $8 billion, the study projected.
With a great graphic, too.

Hell-oh! Ct Carbon at your service.
First some correction. The man here spell it Culgaria. This is wrong..how you say incorrect. Correct is Culgeri'a, but in common parlance Culgeria will suffice..
He could not know this so a bard curse is not necessary..
This DST device looks very good.. I write here and it publishes there..
technorati tags:blogging
Just a few changes. Count Carbon from Culgaria says he chose the title from one of the Bard's works. Can't say I've ever heard of Measure for Measure. Then I'm not the Count. Somehow I think readers here are in a treat full of bardic curses. Culgaria, he tells us, was the name of the Roman neighbourhood his family first recognised. Quite a while ago.. but that's too long a story for here and now..

JCJC has a flare article examining/figuring the Israeli invasion of Lebanon. Says noting to do with hizbollah capture of Israeli soldiers.. the whole thing pre-planned. Worse, Bush and Rice on the outer and Rumsfeld/Cheney plotting behind it all. Longish, but looks fairly solid as far as I can tell..

FIRST THE PIC..
Then here's the email we got and its following advices.. avail yourselves and assist where you can please..The truth is coming soon to a theater near you: Al Gore’s New Global Warming Movie “An Inconvenient Truth”
Al Gore’s critically-acclaimed new film “An Inconvenient Truth” offers the best opportunity we’ve ever had to capture the immediate attention of all Americans and move this country forward quickly to stop global warming. While the problem is urgent, the solutions are clear, and with American ingenuity and leadership, we can avert disaster and restore the world’s confidence in our values. Let’s work together to make this movie a success, and turn the audience interest into action.
One easy way to get involved as virtual marchers is to buy a ticket and bring a friend to see this movie. Then help spread the word. The more people go see this movie on opening weekend, the more theaters will pick it up. Bring the power of the Virtual March to movie theaters across the country.
Marching forward,
Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.
