Small price

In case you had an doubts that the current Republican leadership views our armed forces as a pawns in their real-life Risk game, consider this the nail in the coffin. I give you House Minority asshole Leader John Boehner(R-OH), who says that our investment in Iraq (of billions of dollars, thousands of dead soldiers, and many thousands more injured) has been a “small price” to pay for stopping al Qaeda. If empathy were oxygen, this guy would suffocate.
